[bitbake-devel] [PATCH 2/2] fetch/git: Add pack-refs command to mirror handling code

[Richard Purdie]

We've noticed issues on our infrastucture iterating over the many
tag/branch/head reference files that some git repositories may contain.

By issuing the pack-refs command, we move these all to a single file
which speeds up operations with the mirror repos in the downloads
directory in general.
