I'm not following where you are going. If these database records point to objects in the git database. How will you synchronize garbage collection and the state of the database?
- ajross 11y agoWith pointers out of the refs directory, the way you do it for everything else? Are you deliberately trying to start a fight? This isn't a complicated subject...
- nsfyn55 11y agoNot trying to start a fight, I just don't understand your solution. What does git do with orphaned entries in the refs directory when it garbage collects? Does it delete them? How would you synchronize your database pointers with garbage collection? Presumably when this happened you'd have to interrupt it or you'd have to delete those records from your database. Then they'd really be lost right?
