Comment thread
derrickstolee marked this conversation as resolved.
Set the number of parallel workers used when fetching objects
via HTTP POST requests. Each worker creates its own HTTP
connection and streams the response directly into an
`index-pack --stdin` child process. The default value is `1`,
which processes POST requests sequentially using the existing
code path. Setting this to a higher value (for example `4`)
downloads multiple batches of objects concurrently when the POST
block size is at least `100`. Values less than `1` are treated as
`1`.
