Re: [PATCH] Do not perform cross-directory renames when creating packs

A comment on top of create_tmpfile() describes caveats ('can have
problems on various systems (FAT, NFS, Coda)') that should apply
in this situation as well.  This in the end did not end up solving
any of my personal problems, but it might be a useful cleanup patch
nevertheless.

Side note: the cross-directory avoidance for loose object creation _did_ 
seem to clear up the original problems reported on NFS, so yes, this is 
worth doing. Even if pack-file creation is such a heavy event that I 
suspect that none of the timing/caching/whatever issues that were present 
for loose objects really ever trigger in practice.
