@inguin here are the contents, your guess is as good as mine what the point of this was supposed to be @b0rk flight got delayed, I sit down and find this 😄 terrific read, thank you so much for the quality content! @b0rk will read that later, but the first thing coming to mind is this great post by @isotopp https://blog.koehntopp.info/2021/10/12/understanding-git.html  If anyone wants to know even more about this: Have a look at chapter 10 "Git Internals" of the #book "Pro Git". It's available for free online on the official Git website: https://git-scm.com/book/en/v2 For a different angle, the Git Book also talks about some of these internals in its chapter on Git Objects. I recently leveraged that to manually update permissions in a Gerrit setup, which stores its user database in a unusual Git repository.   @b0rk This is a thorough explanation of how git works! It's nice to learn a few things too. |
@b0rk Oh wow, I'ma have to add this to my reading list. I only ever think of "how" my files live, especially in VCS terms, than "where". Thanks!
