Future Work ----------- -- The multi-pack-index allows many packfiles, especially in a context - where repacking is expensive (such as a very large repo), or - unexpected maintenance time is unacceptable (such as a high-demand - build machine). However, the multi-pack-index needs to be rewritten - in full every time. We can extend the format to be incremental, so - writes are fast. By storing a small "tip" multi-pack-index that - points to large "base" MIDX files, we can keep writes fast while - still reducing the number of binary searches required for object - lookups. - - If the multi-pack-index is extended to store a "stable object order" (a function Order(hash) = integer that is constant for a given hash, even as the multi-pack-index is updated) then MIDX bitmaps could be |
