The documentation for geometric repacking mentions a "--unpacked" option that supposedly changes how loose objects are rolled up. This option has never existed, and the implied behaviour, namely to include all unpacked objects into the resulting packfile, is in fact the default behaviour. Correct the documentation to not mention this option. Signed-off-by: Patrick Steinhardt <redacted> --- Documentation/git-repack.txt | 7 ++----- 1 file changed, 2 insertions(+), 5 deletions(-)
