These are - packed together without offset values to reduce the cache - footprint of the binary search for a specific object name. - - - A table of 4-byte CRC32 values of the packed object data. - This is new in v2 so compressed data can be copied directly - from pack to pack during repacking without undetected - data corruption. - - - A table of 4-byte offset values (in network byte order). - These are usually 31-bit pack file offsets, but large - offsets are encoded as an index into the next table with - the msbit set. - - - A table of 8-byte offset entries (empty for pack files less - than 2 GiB). Pack files are organized with heavily used - objects toward the front, so most object references should - not need to refer to this table. - - - The same trailer as a v1 pack file: - - A copy of the 20-byte SHA1 checksum at the end of - corresponding packfile. - - 20-byte SHA1-checksum of all of the above. - -From: -https://www.kernel.org/pub/software/scm/git/docs/v1.7.5/technical/pack-protocol.txt -*/ |
