We then decide to merge with the Nth level if one of two conditions hold: - 1. The expected file size for level N + 1 is at least half the file size for - level N. + 1. `--size-multiple=<X>` is specified or X = 2, and the number of commits in + level N is less than X times the number of commits in level N + 1. - 2. Level N + 1 contains more than 64,0000 commits. + 2. `--max-commits=<C>` is specified with non-zero C and the number of commits + in level N + 1 is more than C commits. This decision cascades down the levels: when we merge a level we create a new set of commits that then compares to the next level. |
