Hello all,

Not sure if this is the right place/way to ask this, but:

Background

I have some information I would like to share and discuss with the git developers regarding the performance of git-status, especially with respect to (possibly large numbers of) submodules.

I've gathered a significant amount of data, and have actually given a presentation on the performance problem (as I see it) and a quick fix (not one I am comfortable with long-term). [Long-term, I would be willing to work on a fix for the problem, if we agree it is one. That said, I'm not very well versed in git's codebase.]

/Background

I would like to get this information out and a discussion started soon—and of course, Thanksgiving is coming up in the USA, so I expect "timeliness" will be difficult over the holidays.

TL;DR

I'm still drafting the mail for this information, but when I have it ready, when would the list prefer to see it? Should I hold it until next week? Or would you all rather see it over the holiday weekend?

Best, D. Ben Knoble

I wouldn't worry too much. Send when you're able and when you're comfortable receiving replies. Some participants in the Git project are not in the United States and are not having a holiday right now. Some like having an excuse to take a moment away from family to see what other people are up to. Some are completely disconnected from email and won't see such a thread until they come back.

One of the nice things about email is that people can respond at their convenience. So fire away. :)

Thanks, Jonathan

Nicely said.

Thanks (I will be offline for a few days, though).
