![]() Prior to this change, DfsInserter would not insert an object into a pack if it already existed in another pack in the repository, even if that pack was unreachable. Consider this sequence of events: - Object FOO is pushed to a repository. - Subsequent ref changes make FOO UNREACHABLE_GARBAGE. - FOO is subsequently re-inserted using a DfsInserter, but skipped due to existing in UNREACHABLE_GARBAGE. - The repository is repacked; FOO will not be written into a new pack because it is not yet reachable from a reference. If the UNREACHABLE_GARBAGE packs are deleted, FOO disappears. - A reference is updated to reference FOO. This reference is now broken as FOO was removed when the repacking process deleted the UNREACHABLE_GARBAGE pack that stored the only copy of FOO. The garbage collector can't safely delete the UNREACHABLE_GARBAGE pack because FOO might be in the middle of being re-inserted/re-packed. This change writes a duplicate copy of an object if it only exists in UNREACHABLE_GARBAGE. This "freshens" the object to give it a chance to survive long enough to be made reachable through a reference.
