It shouldn't be hard to add; the main issue is determining when
transfering a pack file is a good idea, because it probably doesn't make

Oh, you'd never just transfer the whole big pack-file at all: you'd just 
create a new one. And creatign a new one is just a matter of finding the 
common parent, and then doing

	git-rev-list --objects common..HEAD | git-pack-file .git/tmp-pack

and then you send the result to the other side..
