From: Julian Phillips Date: Thu, 22 Oct 2009 21:06:12 GMT Subject: [PATCH 0/2] Speedup fetch with large numbers of refs Message-ID: <20091022210444.18084.61685.julian@quantumfyre.co.uk> These two commits make fetch quite a bit faster when dealing with large numbers of refs. Unfortunately I've lost the exact figures, but my silly test respository (50000 tags, 1 branch) went from something like 30s for a "fetch --tags" that did nothing, to about 5.
