Re: Handling large files with GIT

Linus Torvalds [off-list ref] writes:

Junio, that "traverse_trees()" logic is totally independent of whether we 
actually do "git-merge-tree" or not, so if you want to, I could split up 
the patches the other way (and merge "traverse_trees()" first as a new 
interface, independently).

I won't have time to look at the actual patch tonight but I am
interested.  I think the general idea should work nice with both
multi-base and octopus merge cases as well ;-).
