[PATCH v3 0/8] Optimized tag autofollowing in git-fetch
From: Shawn O. Pearce <hidden>
Date: 2016-06-15 22:44:19
Here's version 3 of the more aggressive tag following for git-fetch.
1) Remove unused variable in builtin-fetch find_non_local_tags
2) Remove unnecessary delaying of free_refs(ref_map) in builtin-fetch
3) Ensure tail pointer gets setup correctly when we fetch HEAD only
4) Allow builtin-fetch's find_non_local_tags to append onto a list
5) Free the path_lists used to find non-local tags in git-fetch
6) Teach upload-pack to log the received need lines to an fd
7) Make git-fetch follow tags we already have objects for sooner
8) Teach git-fetch to grab a tag at the same time as a commit

Changes since the last (v2) round:
"Free the path_lists used to find non-local tags in git-fetch"
This patch was added to the series to avoid memory corruption
errors that were only showing up on Linux. My earlier testing
only on Mac OS X failed to show any symptoms of the corruption.
Junio noticed it on Linux and asked me to revisit the series.
"Teach upload-pack to log the received need lines to an fd"
At Daniel's suggestion the GIT_DEBUG_SEND_PACK environment
variable takes the value of the fd we log onto. This mirrors
how GIT_TRACE works.
