Not really a bug but size of the git package is big because it installs the same file for different utilities. If a symlink is maintained for these utilities to one executable, the size of package can be reduced to within 8MB instead of 90MB. Just wondering if someone wants to modify the ebuild to create these symlinks or may be talk with upstream to provide them. Its not really a problem but we can reduce the package size. That's why it P3 and minor severity...:-) a6c264fe110777343786dd9cf315e662 git-core/git-add a6c264fe110777343786dd9cf315e662 git-core/git-annotate a6c264fe110777343786dd9cf315e662 git-core/git-apply a6c264fe110777343786dd9cf315e662 git-core/git-archive a6c264fe110777343786dd9cf315e662 git-core/git-blame a6c264fe110777343786dd9cf315e662 git-core/git-branch a6c264fe110777343786dd9cf315e662 git-core/git-bundle a6c264fe110777343786dd9cf315e662 git-core/git-cat-file a6c264fe110777343786dd9cf315e662 git-core/git-check-attr a6c264fe110777343786dd9cf315e662 git-core/git-check-ref-format a6c264fe110777343786dd9cf315e662 git-core/git-checkout a6c264fe110777343786dd9cf315e662 git-core/git-checkout-index a6c264fe110777343786dd9cf315e662 git-core/git-cherry a6c264fe110777343786dd9cf315e662 git-core/git-cherry-pick a6c264fe110777343786dd9cf315e662 git-core/git-clean a6c264fe110777343786dd9cf315e662 git-core/git-clone a6c264fe110777343786dd9cf315e662 git-core/git-commit a6c264fe110777343786dd9cf315e662 git-core/git-commit-tree a6c264fe110777343786dd9cf315e662 git-core/git-config a6c264fe110777343786dd9cf315e662 git-core/git-count-objects a6c264fe110777343786dd9cf315e662 git-core/git-describe a6c264fe110777343786dd9cf315e662 git-core/git-diff a6c264fe110777343786dd9cf315e662 git-core/git-diff-files a6c264fe110777343786dd9cf315e662 git-core/git-diff-index a6c264fe110777343786dd9cf315e662 git-core/git-diff-tree a6c264fe110777343786dd9cf315e662 git-core/git-fast-export a6c264fe110777343786dd9cf315e662 git-core/git-fetch a6c264fe110777343786dd9cf315e662 git-core/git-fetch--tool a6c264fe110777343786dd9cf315e662 git-core/git-fetch-pack a6c264fe110777343786dd9cf315e662 git-core/git-fmt-merge-msg a6c264fe110777343786dd9cf315e662 git-core/git-for-each-ref a6c264fe110777343786dd9cf315e662 git-core/git-format-patch a6c264fe110777343786dd9cf315e662 git-core/git-fsck a6c264fe110777343786dd9cf315e662 git-core/git-fsck-objects a6c264fe110777343786dd9cf315e662 git-core/git-gc a6c264fe110777343786dd9cf315e662 git-core/git-get-tar-commit-id a6c264fe110777343786dd9cf315e662 git-core/git-grep a6c264fe110777343786dd9cf315e662 git-core/git-http-fetch a6c264fe110777343786dd9cf315e662 git-core/git-init a6c264fe110777343786dd9cf315e662 git-core/git-init-db a6c264fe110777343786dd9cf315e662 git-core/git-log a6c264fe110777343786dd9cf315e662 git-core/git-ls-files a6c264fe110777343786dd9cf315e662 git-core/git-ls-remote a6c264fe110777343786dd9cf315e662 git-core/git-ls-tree a6c264fe110777343786dd9cf315e662 git-core/git-mailinfo a6c264fe110777343786dd9cf315e662 git-core/git-mailsplit a6c264fe110777343786dd9cf315e662 git-core/git-merge a6c264fe110777343786dd9cf315e662 git-core/git-merge-base a6c264fe110777343786dd9cf315e662 git-core/git-merge-file a6c264fe110777343786dd9cf315e662 git-core/git-merge-ours a6c264fe110777343786dd9cf315e662 git-core/git-merge-recursive a6c264fe110777343786dd9cf315e662 git-core/git-merge-subtree a6c264fe110777343786dd9cf315e662 git-core/git-mv a6c264fe110777343786dd9cf315e662 git-core/git-name-rev a6c264fe110777343786dd9cf315e662 git-core/git-pack-objects a6c264fe110777343786dd9cf315e662 git-core/git-pack-refs a6c264fe110777343786dd9cf315e662 git-core/git-peek-remote a6c264fe110777343786dd9cf315e662 git-core/git-prune a6c264fe110777343786dd9cf315e662 git-core/git-prune-packed a6c264fe110777343786dd9cf315e662 git-core/git-push a6c264fe110777343786dd9cf315e662 git-core/git-read-tree a6c264fe110777343786dd9cf315e662 git-core/git-reflog a6c264fe110777343786dd9cf315e662 git-core/git-remote a6c264fe110777343786dd9cf315e662 git-core/git-repo-config a6c264fe110777343786dd9cf315e662 git-core/git-rerere a6c264fe110777343786dd9cf315e662 git-core/git-reset a6c264fe110777343786dd9cf315e662 git-core/git-rev-list a6c264fe110777343786dd9cf315e662 git-core/git-rev-parse a6c264fe110777343786dd9cf315e662 git-core/git-revert a6c264fe110777343786dd9cf315e662 git-core/git-rm a6c264fe110777343786dd9cf315e662 git-core/git-send-pack a6c264fe110777343786dd9cf315e662 git-core/git-shortlog a6c264fe110777343786dd9cf315e662 git-core/git-show a6c264fe110777343786dd9cf315e662 git-core/git-show-branch a6c264fe110777343786dd9cf315e662 git-core/git-show-ref a6c264fe110777343786dd9cf315e662 git-core/git-status a6c264fe110777343786dd9cf315e662 git-core/git-stripspace a6c264fe110777343786dd9cf315e662 git-core/git-symbolic-ref a6c264fe110777343786dd9cf315e662 git-core/git-tag a6c264fe110777343786dd9cf315e662 git-core/git-tar-tree a6c264fe110777343786dd9cf315e662 git-core/git-unpack-objects a6c264fe110777343786dd9cf315e662 git-core/git-update-index a6c264fe110777343786dd9cf315e662 git-core/git-update-ref a6c264fe110777343786dd9cf315e662 git-core/git-upload-archive a6c264fe110777343786dd9cf315e662 git-core/git-verify-pack a6c264fe110777343786dd9cf315e662 git-core/git-verify-tag a6c264fe110777343786dd9cf315e662 git-core/git-whatchanged a6c264fe110777343786dd9cf315e662 git-core/git-write-tree
ok, wrong numbers. Size reduces from 82MB to 7MB....:-)
Once again (as I seen this more than once) invalid. All of those are hardlinks (and they are planned to be removed in some future version of git anyway), chech the output of du vs 'du -l' on the list of those files.
