Sergey spotted a grave bug, already in "master", which shows my lack of testing. I just pushed out his fix, which is to revert d119e3de13ea1493107bd57381d0ce9c9dd90976. It should propagate to the mirrors soon. If you used git-update-server-info with the bug on your repository, you will find a huge objects/info/packs file. Usually it should list just a handful edge tags and commits, but with the bug it practically lists everything. After rebuilding the fixed git-update-server-info, please run 'git-update-server-info -f' there to fix this problem. Sorry for the stupid bug, and many thanks to Sergey. ------------ This reverts d119e3de13ea1493107bd57381d0ce9c9dd90976 commit. Object references are used in server-info.c:find_pack_info_one() to find out which objects in the pack are heads, therefore tracking of references cannot be disabled. Signed-off-by: Sergey Vlasov <redacted> Signed-off-by: Junio C Hamano <redacted> --- Looks like this bug has caused objects/info/packs in the linux-2.4 repository to grow huge and hit the limit, which I then needed to remove in the previous patch. update-server-info.c | 3 --- 1 files changed, 0 insertions(+), 3 deletions(-) applies-to: 1970e5869a42fd4095917d861654dc84d60f02b7 985738719bfb5284911871f15180a2aee6512d53
