How DELTA objects values work and are calculated

o Delta objects work? B) Where and how are the sha1 values calculated? I have read Documentation/technical/pack-format.txt, but am still not clear. Thank you! -- Farhan Khan PGP Fingerprint: B28D 2726 E2BC A97E 3854 5ABE 9A9F 00BC D525 16EE

Understanding last ~28 bytes of index file

in the source are bytes written? I am trying to understand how to reproduce the index file and am not sure how this part works. Thank you, --- Farhan Khan PGP Fingerprint: 1312 89CE 663E 1EB2 179C 1C83 C41D 2281 F8DA C0DE

Understanding DIRC section of .git/index

s that the code does the equivalent of stat() a file, then write the data into the index file. Is this accurate? Is there any htonl() bit rearrangement? What about for the mode or flags? Thanks, --- Farhan Khan PGP Fingerprint: 1312 89CE 663E 1EB2 179C 1C83 C41D 2281 F8DA C0DE

Understanding pack format

re any sample code of how to interpret each entry? Where is this in the git code? That might serve as a good guide. I see a few references to "PACK_SIGNATURE", but not certain which actually reads the data. Thanks! -- Farhan Khan PGP Fingerprint: B28D 2726 E2BC A97E 3854 5ABE 9A9F 00BC D525 16EE

Does git load index file into memory?

Hi all, Does git load the entire index file into memory when it wants to edit/view it? I ask because I wonder if this can become a problem with the index file becomes arbitrarily large, like for the Linux kernel. Thanks, -- Farhan Khan PGP Fingerprint: B28D 2726 E2BC A97E 3854 5ABE 9A9F 00BC

How crc32 value is calculated for deltified objects

calls use(). My question is, does it update the crc32 value with the deltas or just the undeltified object? And if my question implies I do not understand how this process works, can you please explain to me how the crc32 value is constructed? Thank you. --- Farhan Khan PGP Fingerprint: 1312 89CE
