Re: git annotate runs out of memory

* Daniel Berlin:

On the gcc repository (which is now a 234 meg pack for me), git
annotate ChangeLog takes > 800 meg of memory (I stopped it at about
1.6 gig, since it started swapping my machine).
I assume it will run out of memory.  I stopped it after 2 minutes.

A less unwieldy repository that shows the same problem is:

  svn://svn.debian.org/secure-testing/

It's annotating the data/CVE/list file that uses tons of memory.  I
guess you don't need to clone the full history to exhibit the problem.
