Package: git-gui Version: 1:1.5.4.1-1 Severity: normal I keep some of my home directory in Git. However, I also have thousands of untracked files in the parts of my home directory I don't have in Git. Most of Git now handles this fine, with no performance problems. However, git-gui seems to search for all untracked files on startup, which makes it unusably slow.
Perhaps git-gui could only look in directories which correspond to trees in the most recent commit, and could show other directories without showing the files they contain, like the output of "git status". Selecting that directory could expand it one level further. - Josh Triplett -- System Information: Debian Release: lenny/sid APT prefers unstable APT policy: (500, 'unstable'), (1, 'experimental') Architecture: i386 (i686) Kernel: Linux 2.6.24-1-686 (SMP w/1 CPU core) Locale: LANG=en_US.UTF-8, LC_CTYPE=en_US.UTF-8 (charmap=UTF-8) Shell: /bin/sh linked to /bin/bash Versions of packages git-gui depends on: ii git-core 1:1.5.4.1-1 fast, scalable, distributed revisi ii tk8.4 8.4.18-1 Tk toolkit for Tcl and X11, v8.4 - Versions of packages git-gui recommends: ii gitk 1:1.5.4.1-1 fast, scalable, distributed revisi -- no debconf information -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of "unsubscribe".
