out of memory with a large window, but still be able to take
advantage of the large window for the smaller objects. The
size can be suffixed with "k", "m", or "g".
- `--window-memory=0` makes memory usage unlimited, which is the
- default.
+ `--window-memory=0` makes memory usage unlimited. The default
+ is taken from the `pack.windowMemory` configuration variable.
+ Note that the actual memory usage will be the limit multiplied
+ by the number of threads used by linkgit:git-pack-objects[1].
--max-pack-size=<n>::
Maximum size of each output pack file. The size can be suffixed with
with `-b` or `repack.writeBitmaps`, as it ensures that the
bitmapped packfile has the necessary objects.
+--unpack-unreachable=<when>::
+ When loosening unreachable objects, do not bother loosening any
+ objects older than `<when>`. This can be used to optimize out
+ the write of any objects that would be immediately pruned by
+ a follow-up `git prune`.
+
+-k::
+--keep-unreachable::
+ When used with `-ad`, any unreachable objects from existing
+ packs will be appended to the end of the packfile instead of
+ being removed. In addition, any unreachable loose objects will
+ be packed (and their loose counterparts removed).
