Subject: [PATCH 2/7] Documentation/git-multi-pack-index.txt: clarify expire behavior
Date: Mon, 19 Sep 2022 21:55:42 -0400 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <4c9296c0ea6f5048c429ccb24fc202c1eb58f2ef.1663638929.git.me@ttaylorr.com> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <cover.1663638929.git.me@ttaylorr.com>
The `expire` sub-command of `git multi-pack-index` will never expire
`.keep` packs, regardless of whether or not any of their objects were
selected in the MIDX.
This has always been the case since 19575c7c8e (multi-pack-index:
implement 'expire' subcommand, 2019-06-10), which came after cff9711616
(multi-pack-index: prepare for 'expire' subcommand, 2019-06-10), when
this documentation was originally written.
