There are a number of other changes we've discussed doing to our
repository format. I'd like to put a vague roadmap for that together.
I propose a new edition each release. And that we should try to add the
following things in each:
packs2:
- optional annotation cache
- remove list-dir usage (we need some discussion on race conditions
here).
- drop inventory parents data from the .iix
packs3:
- new inventory format
- arbitrary-parent delta's.
- 'pack' recompresses with better ordering to increase compression.
E.g. newest-as-basis.
packs4:
- new delta-compression
- make indices entirely regeneratable
