Subject: [PATCH 02/10] pack-objects: add --partial-by-size=n --partial-special

From: Jeff Hostetler <[email-masked]>
Date: Wed, 8 Mar 2017 17:37:57 +0000

From: Jeff Hostetler <[email-masked]>

Teach pack-objects to omit blobs from the generated packfile.

When the --partial-by-size=n[kmg] argument is used, only blobs
smaller than the requested size are included.  When n is zero,
no blobs are included.

When the --partial-special argument is used, git special files,
such as ".gitattributes" and ".gitignores" are included.

When both are given, the union of two are included.

This is intended to be used in a partial clone or fetch.
(This has also been called sparse- or lazy-clone.)
