Subject: Add "--depth=N" parameter to git-pack-objects to limit maximum delta depth
X-Git-Tag: v0.99~173
X-Git-Url: https://git.verplant.org/?a=commitdiff_plain;h=d116a45a9a505d9a58cdd1c79193f759316c440d;p=git.git

Add "--depth=N" parameter to git-pack-objects to limit maximum delta depth

It too defaults to 10. A nice round random number.
