Is there any progress with this? - Orgad [1] https://public-inbox.org/git/ffd92ad9-39fe-c76b-178d-6e3d6a425037@google.com/ ``` ## Jonathan Tan, 2017-07-24 16:13 Subject: Re: fetch-any-blob / ref-in-want proposal Message-ID: <20170724091319.6818819d@twelve2.svl.corp.google.com> URL: https://gitlist.dev/e/20170724091319.6818819d%40twelve2.svl.corp.google.com In-Reply-To: ``` On Sun, 23 Jul 2017 09:41:50 +0300 Orgad Shaneh wrote: > Hi, > > Jonathan Tan proposed a design and a patch series for requesting a > specific ref on fetch 4 months ago[1]. > > Is there any progress with this? > > - Orgad > > [1] https://public-inbox.org/git/ffd92ad9-39fe-c76b-178d-6e3d6a425037@google.com/ Do you mean requesting a specific blob (as referenced by your link)? If yes, it is still being discussed. One such discussion is here: [1] If you mean ref-in-want, I don't recall anything being done since then.

I mean ref-in-want[1]. This issue in gerrit[2] was closed, claiming that ref-in-want will solve it. I just want to know if this is likely to be merged soon enough (I consider several months "soon enough"), or should I look for other solutions. - Orgad [1] https://public-inbox.org/git/cover.1485381677.git.jonathantanmy@google.com/ [2] https://bugs.chromium.org/p/gerrit/issues/detail?id=175#c24 ``` ## Jonathan Tan, 2017-07-25 03:39 Subject: Re: fetch-any-blob / ref-in-want proposal Message-ID: URL: https://gitlist.dev/e/CAGf8dgLqgdyf3wTLC%2BodZsK4gZyENb68YvLk_4og_co1nox3wA%40mail.gmail.com In-Reply-To: ``` On Mon, Jul 24, 2017 at 12:38 PM, Orgad Shaneh wrote: > Sorry, I thought it's the same thing.
