OK, here's a patch to implement pack.depth (with the default tweaked

This is most likely to affect runtime performances, but some benchmarks 
would be needed to find out how much.

Having both pack.depth and pack.window as config options (with current 
defaults of 10) would certainly be a good thing.  Tweaking those 
defaults should probably be investigated separately.
followed by a simplified and reworked
patch to git-gc that only implements --no-reuse-delta.

I don't imagine that most users will want to use that feature most of
the time, hence the long option name, but occasionally, it might be
useful.  Yes, the user could just run "git-repack -a -d -f -l" after
running git-gc, but then the "git-repack -a -d -l" in git-gc is just a
wasted disk i/o.
In which case, it is git-gc that needs to get a bit smarter.  Maybe 
something like this:

Avoid running git-repack from git-gc if there is evidently nothing to 
repack.
