# A repository with the sparserevlog feature will have delta chains that
# can spread over a larger span. Sparse reading cuts these large spans into
# pieces, so that each piece isn't too big.
# Without the sparserevlog capability, reading from the repository could use
# huge amounts of memory, because the whole span would be read at once,
# including all the intermediate revisions that aren't pertinent for the chain.
# This is why once a repository has enabled sparse-read, it becomes required.
