|
|
- Reading MIDX files
|
|
|
- Writing MIDX files
|
|
|
- Integration with pack-based object stores

+
|
|
|
+Limitations:
|
|
|
+- Incremental MIDX chains are not yet supported (base_midx_files must be 0)
|
|
|
+- BTMP (bitmapped packfiles) chunk is not yet implemented
|
|
|
+- RIDX (reverse index) chunk is not yet implemented
|
|
|
+
|
|
|
+Note: Incremental MIDX chains were introduced in Git 2.47 as an experimental
|
|
|
+feature, where multiple MIDX files can be chained together. The format includes
|
|
|
+a base_midx_files field in the header and uses a multi-pack-index.d/ directory
|
|
|
+with a multi-pack-index-chain file. This feature is not yet supported by Dulwich
|
|
|
+as the specification is still evolving.
