Something like this:[1] ae72f685418 (count-objects -v: show number of packs as well., 2006-12-27) added `packs` to the output of `-v`. 0bdaa12169b (git-count-objects.txt: describe each line in -v output, 2013-02-08) forgot to include `packs`. The text above is a bit more terse around the commit references since the subject line for the second commit says what the intent was. Alternatively, just referencing the second commit: 0bdaa12169b (git-count-objects.txt: describe each line in -v output, 2013-02-08) forgot to include `packs`. † 1: using “commit-reference” from Documentation/SubmittingPatches > > Signed-off-by: Daniele Sassoli ``` ## Daniele Sassoli via GitGitGadget, 2025-08-14 13:16 Subject: [PATCH v2] Document count-objects pack Message-ID: URL: https://gitlist.dev/e/pull.2031.v2.git.git.1755177382349.gitgitgadget%40gmail.com In-Reply-To: ``` From: Daniele Sassoli 0bdaa12169b (git-count-objects.txt: describe each line in -v output, 2013-02-08) forgot to include `packs`.
