helpful for these clones, anyway. The commit-graph will not be read or
written when shallow commits are present.
-Future Work
------------
-
-- After computing and storing generation numbers, we must make graph
- walks aware of generation numbers to gain the performance benefits they
- enable. This will mostly be accomplished by swapping a commit-date-ordered
- priority queue with one ordered by generation number. The following
- operations are important candidates:
-
- - 'log --topo-order'
- - 'tag --merged'
-
-- A server could provide a commit-graph file as part of the network protocol
- to avoid extra calculations by clients. This feature is only of benefit if
- the user is willing to trust the file, because verifying the file is correct
- is as hard as computing it from scratch.
