#25551: git-core installs 214 identical git binaries instead of hardlinking ----------------------------------------+----------------------------------- Reporter: oyasumi+macports@… | Owner: macports-tickets@… Type: defect | Status: new Priority: Normal | Milestone: Component: ports | Version: 1.9.1 Keywords: | Port: git-core ----------------------------------------+----------------------------------- In my installation, the shasum of the /opt/local/bin/git binary (1238372 bytes or 2419 512-byte blocks long) is df903d1522d3903a95dd12036fac82d9f6133e0a. That same file occurrs in no less than 214 places on disk after installation, only half of which are hardlinks (presumably the /opt/local/var/macports/software/git- core/1.7.1.1_0+doc+svn/opt/local mirror of the /opt/local tree), which seems like serious waste. Attaching the output of "shasum $(find /opt/local -type f -size 2419)" on my system, that lists all the culprits. -- Ticket URL: <http://trac.macports.org/ticket/25551> MacPorts <http://www.macports.org/> Ports system for Mac OS
