Hi folks,


IIRC some people were working on splitted directory objects
(eg. for putting subdirs into their own objects), some time ago.

What's the current status of this ?

Each directory maps to its own tree object, so a subdirectory is
stored in its own object.  It happened on April 7th, 2005, if not
earlier.

Ah, great :)

Maybe I've mixed that up with the discussion about splitting large
files into several objects. What's the status on this ?
