Yes, after being vaporware for many many years (I don't even remember
when I started making references to a possible pack format version 4 --
certainly more than 6 years ago) I finally completed the code to produce
a new pack format I'm actually happy with.

...

But the biggest gain will come from direct interpretation of the native
pack data encoding.  However I'll let others do that part, as well as
the required fsck support and all the backward compatibility handling,
etc.  Now that the encoding design is pretty much settled I think it is
good for review, and for others to get involved as well.

Interested?  ;-)

A clone url, or a patch series please! :-)

This is coming next.
