The command unpack-objects dies upon the first error. This is probably considered a feature -- if a pack is corrupt, instead of trying to extract from it and possibly risking to contaminate a good repository with objects whose validity is dubious, we should seek a good copy of the pack and retry. However, we may not have any good copy anywhere. This implements the last resort effort to extract what are salvageable from such a corrupt pack. This flag might have helped Sergio when recovering from a corrupt pack. In my test, it managed to salvage 247 objects out of a pack that had 251 objects but without it the command stopped after extracting 73 objects. Signed-off-by: Junio C Hamano <junkio@cox.net>
