NO_PTHREADS can also be used even though the platform supports multithread: to make keep git execution in a single core/thread. It might matter on hosted systems with limited cpu power and you don't want git to hog it all. Yes it can also be achieved by setting a zillion config keys to "1", this way is just simpler. -- Duy
