Thanks. I just read through them again. Everything looks good to me.

Patches 10 and 11 are missing my signoff, but obviously:

  Signed-off-by: Jeff King [off-list ref]

The last patch is still optional--it avoids a little bit of work when
rewriting the packed-refs file, but relies on the stat-based freshness
check not giving a false negative.

I don't have a real problem with it, but given the cygwin confusions
that Ramsay mentioned, maybe it is better to hold back on it for now? It
sounds like the cygwin problems go the other way (false positives
instead of false negatives).
