Hi, I have a user question, I hope that's ok.  Actually, the end goal is
development of a fast-import frontend.  The fast-import manpage says
that it is safe to run "any other" git operation concurrently with
fast-import.  It doesn't say if it is possible and safe to run another
copy of fast-import itself.

Yes, you can.

The only problem is, each fast-import cannot see the objects created
by the other concurrent fast-imports until they either terminate, or
execute "checkpoint" command received from the frontend.
