Re: [PATCH] pack-objects: proper pack time stamping with --max-pack-size

Nicolas Pitre [off-list ref] writes:

Runtime pack access is done in the pack file mtime order since recent 
packs are more likely to contain frequently used objects than old packs.
However the --max-pack-size option can produce multiple packs with mtime 
in the reversed order as newer objects are always written first.

Let's modify mtime of later pack files (when any) so they appear older 
than preceding ones when a repack creates multiple packs.

It is a very good companion to f7c22cc (always start looking up objects in
the last used pack first, May 30, 2007) after 10 months ;-)
