Rather than reimplementing the progress meter logic and always showing 100 lines of output while pruning already packed objects we now use a delayed progress meter and only show it if there are enough objects to make us take a little while. Most users won't see the message anymore as it usually doesn't take very long to delete the already packed loose objects. This neatens the output of a git-gc or git-repack execution, which is especially important for a `git gc --auto` triggered from within another command. We perform the display_progress() call from within the very innermost loop in case we spend more than 1 second within any single object directory. This ensures that a progress_update event from the timer will still trigger in a timely fashion and allow the user to see the progress meter. While I'm in here I changed the message to be more descriptive of its actual task. "Removing unused objects" is a little scary for new users as they wonder where these unused objects came from and how they should avoid them. Truth is these objects aren't unused in the sense of what git-prune would call a dangling object, these are used but are just duplicates of things we have already stored in a packfile.

//////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////// GIT - the stupid content tracker //////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////// "git" can mean anything, depending on your mood. - random three-letter combination that is pronounceable, and not actually used by any common UNIX command. The fact that it is a mispronunciation of "get" may or may not be relevant. - stupid. contemptible and despicable. simple. Take your pick from the dictionary of slang. - "global information tracker": you're in a good mood, and it actually works for you. Angels sing, and a light suddenly fills the room. - "goddamn idiotic truckload of sh*t": when it breaks Git is a fast, scalable, distributed revision control system with an unusually rich command set that provides both high-level operations and full access to internals. Git is an Open Source project covered by the GNU General Public License. It was originally written by Linus Torvalds with help of a group of hackers around the net. It is currently maintained by Junio C Hamano. Please read the file INSTALL for installation instructions. See Documentation/tutorial.txt to get started, then see Documentation/everyday.txt for a useful minimum set of commands, and "man git-commandname" for documentation of each command. CVS users may also want to read Documentation/cvs-migration.txt. Many Git online resources are accessible from http://git.or.cz/ including full documentation and Git related tools. The user discussion and development of Git take place on the Git mailing list -- everyone is welcome to post bug reports, feature requests, comments and patches to git@vger.kernel.org. To subscribe to the list, send an email with just "subscribe git" in the body to majordomo@vger.kernel.org. The mailing list archives are available at http://marc.theaimsgroup.com/?l=git and other archival sites. The messages titled "A note from the maintainer", "What's in git.git (stable)" and "What's cooking in git.git (topics)" and the discussion following them on the mailing list give a good reference for project status, development direction and remaining tasks.
