Subject: Resumable clone
Date: Sat, 5 Mar 2016 01:23:04 -0800	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <CANtyZjSJf5_xbsBC5tUaazFT3uiEgJnx2_kHLwYwKcn50Jy_qg@mail.gmail.com> (raw)

Hey, all,

A while ago, I noticed that if a clone is interrupted, it has to be
restarted completely. When I looked up the issue, I saw that someone
suggested resumable clones as a feature as early as 2007.  It doesn't
seem like any progress has been made on this issue, so I began looking
at relevant code yesterday to start working on it.

Is someone working on this currently?  Are there any things I should
know moving forward?  Is there a certain way I should break
down/organize the feature when writing patches?

Any information is appreciated.

Thanks,
Kevin
