Nicolas Pitre 81f6654a47 Show total transferred as part of throughput progress Right now it is infeasible to offer to the user a reasonable concept of when a clone will be complete as we aren't able to come up with the final pack size until after we have actually transferred the entire thing to the client. However in many cases users can work with a rough rule-of-thumb; for example it is somewhat well known that git.git is about 16 MiB today and that linux-2.6.git is over 120 MiB. We now show the total amount of data we have transferred over the network as part of the throughput meter, organizing it in "human friendly" terms like `ls -h` would do. Users can glance at this, see that the total transferred size is about 3 MiB, see the throughput of X KiB/sec, and determine a reasonable figure of about when the clone will be complete, assuming they know the rough size of the source repository or are able to obtain it. This is also a helpful indicator that there is progress being made even if we stall on a very large object. The thoughput meter may remain relatively constant and the percentage complete and object count won't be changing, but the total transferred will be increasing as additional data is received for this object.

	GIT - the stupid content tracker

////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////

"git" can mean anything, depending on your mood.

 - random three-letter combination that is pronounceable, and not
   actually used by any common UNIX command.  The fact that it is a
   mispronunciation of "get" may or may not be relevant.
 - stupid. contemptible and despicable. simple. Take your pick from the
   dictionary of slang.
 - "global information tracker": you're in a good mood, and it actually
   works for you. Angels sing, and a light suddenly fills the room.
 - "goddamn idiotic truckload of sh*t": when it breaks

Git is a fast, scalable, distributed revision control system with an
unusually rich command set that provides both high-level operations
and full access to internals.

Git is an Open Source project covered by the GNU General Public License.
It was originally written by Linus Torvalds with help of a group of
hackers around the net. It is currently maintained by Junio C Hamano.

Please read the file INSTALL for installation instructions.
See Documentation/tutorial.txt to get started, then see
Documentation/everyday.txt for a useful minimum set of commands,
and "man git-commandname" for documentation of each command.
CVS users may also want to read Documentation/cvs-migration.txt.

Many Git online resources are accessible from http://git.or.cz/
including full documentation and Git related tools.

The user discussion and development of Git take place on the Git
mailing list -- everyone is welcome to post bug reports, feature
requests, comments and patches to git@vger.kernel.org. To subscribe
to the list, send an email with just "subscribe git" in the body to
majordomo@vger.kernel.org. The mailing list archives are available at
http://marc.theaimsgroup.com/?l=git and other archival sites.

The messages titled "A note from the maintainer", "What's in
git.git (stable)" and "What's cooking in git.git (topics)" and
the discussion following them on the mailing list give a good
reference for project status, development direction and
remaining tasks.
