Junio C Hamanof2b74942012-11-20 21:06:26746<div class="paragraph"><p>Shallow commits do have parents, but not in the shallow
747repo, and therefore grafts are introduced pretending that
748these commits have no parents.</p></div>
749</div></div>
Junio C Hamanob9d9d902018-05-23 07:07:42750<div class="paragraph"><p>$GIT_DIR/shallow lists commit object names and tells Git to
751pretend as if they are root commits (e.g. "git log" traversal
752stops after showing them; "git fsck" does not complain saying
753the commits listed on their "parent" lines do not exist).</p></div>
Junio C Hamano779537c2020-08-19 23:48:51754<div class="paragraph"><p>Each line contains exactly one object name. When read, a commit_graft
Junio C Hamanof2b74942012-11-20 21:06:26755will be constructed, which has nr_parent &lt; 0 to make it easier
756to discern from user provided grafts.</p></div>
Junio C Hamanob9d9d902018-05-23 07:07:42757<div class="paragraph"><p>Note that the shallow feature could not be changed easily to
758use replace refs: a commit containing a <code>mergetag</code> is not allowed
759to be replaced, not even by a root commit. Such a commit can be
760made shallow, though. Also, having a <code>shallow</code> file explicitly
761listing all the commits made shallow makes it a <strong>lot</strong> easier to
762do shallow-specific things such as to deepen the history.</p></div>
Junio C Hamanof2b74942012-11-20 21:06:26763<div class="paragraph"><p>Since fsck-objects relies on the library to read the objects,
764it honours shallow commits automatically.</p></div>
765<div class="paragraph"><p>There are some unfinished ends of the whole shallow business:</p></div>
766<div class="ulist"><ul>
767<li>
768<p>
769maybe we have to force non-thin packs when fetching into a
770 shallow repo (ATM they are forced non-thin).
771</p>
772</li>
773<li>
774<p>
775A special handling of a shallow upstream is needed. At some
776 stage, upload-pack has to check if it sends a shallow commit,
777 and it should send that information early (or fail, if the
778 client does not support shallow repositories). There is no
779 support at all for this in this patch series.
780</p>
781</li>
782<li>
783<p>
784Instead of locking $GIT_DIR/shallow at the start, just
785 the timestamp of it is noted, and when it comes to writing it,
786 a check is performed if the mtime is still the same, dying if
787 it is not.
788</p>
789</li>
790<li>
791<p>
792It is unclear how "push into/from a shallow repo" should behave.
793</p>
794</li>
795<li>
796<p>
797If you deepen a history, you&#8217;d want to get the tags of the
798 newly stored (but older!) commits. This does not work right now.
799</p>
800</li>
801</ul></div>
802<div class="paragraph"><p>To make a shallow clone, you can call "git-clone --depth 20 repo".
803The result contains only commit chains with a length of at most 20.
804It also writes an appropriate $GIT_DIR/shallow.</p></div>
805<div class="paragraph"><p>You can deepen a shallow repository with "git-fetch --depth 20
806repo branch", which will fetch branch from repo, but stop at depth
80720, updating $GIT_DIR/shallow.</p></div>
Junio C Hamano0d1122e2013-02-01 21:37:02808<div class="paragraph"><p>The special depth 2147483647 (or 0x7fffffff, the largest positive
809number a signed 32-bit integer can contain) means infinite depth.</p></div>
