By the way, the reason I'm even interested in this in the first place is
that the performance of commands like "git blame" and "git log" on files

log" a specific list of revisions, and if so, whether that could yield
good performance.

That sounds kind of slow. Is your repository really gigantic? Have you packed
everything? I'm just curious if there's some other way to make things
faster. Is the repository publicly available?
