COMMITS

Last week there were 3 commits.
🛠️ Merge pull request #2077 from r1walz/gzip-cmd-404 [FIX] git-archive error, gzip -cn : command not found by dscho
🛠️ archive: avoid spawning gzip As we already link to zlib library, we can perform the compression without even requiring gzip on the host machine We modify write_tar_filter_archive() function in archive-tar.c to handle the compression when gzip -cn is requested Signed-off-by: Rohit Ashiwal [email protected] by r1walz
🛠️ archive: replace write_or_die() calls with write_block_or_die() MinGit for Windows comes without gzip bundled inside, git-archive uses gzip -cn to compress tar files but for this to work, gzip needs to be present on the host system, which sometimes is not the case In the next commit, we will change the gzip compression so that we no longer spawn gzip but let zlib perform the compression in the same process In preparation for this, we consolidate all the block writes into a single function Closes: #1970 Signed-off-by: Rohit Ashiwal [email protected] by r1walz
