From: Derrick Stolee via GitGitGadget Date: Wed, 28 Nov 2018 21:52:45 GMT Subject: [PATCH 3/5] pack-objects: add --sparse option Message-ID: <9d6b8f6d0602e85652b2a748c58eeed4cbf4359e.1543441960.git.gitgitgadget@gmail.com> In-Reply-To: From: Derrick Stolee Add a '--sparse' option flag to the pack-objects builtin. This allows the user to specify that they want to use the new logic for walking trees. This logic currently does not differ from the existing output, but will in a later change. Create a new test script, t5322-pack-objects-sparse.sh, to ensure the object list that is selected matches what we expect. When we update the logic to walk in a sparse fashion, the final test will be updated to show the extra objects that are added.
