Subject: preserve mtime of local clone
X-Git-Tag: v1.6.5-rc1~8
X-Git-Url: https://git.tokkee.org/?a=commitdiff_plain;h=f7835a251c2c98df152792b15793b03e22bf078e;p=git.git

preserve mtime of local clone

A local clone without hardlinks copies all objects, including dangling
ones, to the new repository. Since the mtimes are renewed, those
dangling objects cannot be pruned by "git gc --prune", even if they
would have been old enough for pruning in the original repository.

Instead, preserve mtime during copy. "git gc --prune" will then work
in the clone just like it did in the original.
