Well, rsync has a mode where you say "look, if the file size and timestamp are the same, please just assume it hasn't changed - I'm happy with this and am willing to accept that if that isn't sufficient any resulting problems are mine".
I wonder if having some way to tell git to do the same for files with a particular extension/in a particular directory would get us a decent amount of the way there?
- silentbicycle 18y agoWhile I haven't checked the source, I'm pretty sure by default git doesn't re-hash any files unless the timestamps have changed. (I know Mercurial doesn't.)
