Introduce a new manual page, gitpacking(7) to collect useful information about advanced packing concepts in Git. In future commits in this series, this manual page will expand to describe the new pseudo-merge bitmaps feature, as well as include examples, relevant configuration bits, use-cases, and so on. Outside of this series, this manual page may absorb similar pieces from other parts of Git's documentation about packing.

gitpacking - Advanced concepts related to packing in Git

|

SYNOPSIS

--------
|
|
gitpacking
|
|
|
|
DESCRIPTION
|
|
-----------
|
|
|
|
This document aims to describe some advanced concepts related to packing
|
|
in Git.
|
|
|
|
Many concepts are currently described scattered between manual pages of
|
|
various Git commands, including linkgit:git-pack-objects[1],
|
|
linkgit:git-repack[1], and others, as well as linkgit:gitformat-pack[5],
|
|
and parts of the `Documentation/technical` tree.
|
|
|
|
There are many aspects of packing in Git that are not covered in this
|
|
document that instead live in the aforementioned areas. Over time, those
|
|
scattered bits may coalesce into this document.
