From: Nguyễn Thái Ngọc Duy Date: Sat, 5 May 2018 08:47:16 +0000 (+0200) Subject: pack-objects: validation and documentation about unreachable options X-Git-Tag: v2.18.0-rc0~38^2 X-Git-Url: http://git.ipfire.org/?a=commitdiff_plain;h=58bd77b66a83e7d8bcbc4e756ab997416d246be2;p=thirdparty%2Fgit.git pack-objects: validation and documentation about unreachable options These options are added in [1] [2] [3]. All these depend on running rev-list internally which is normally true since they are always used with "--all --objects" which implies --revs. But let's keep this dependency explicit. While at there, add documentation for them. These are mostly used internally by git-repack. But it's still good to not chase down the right commit message to know how they work.
