I have seen some discussion about various changes to the format of the
index and pack files over time, but can't find anything about it in
the man pages.  Are the different formats documented anywhere, and how
to tell which format you are using?

Hello,

The documentation is available in Documentation/technical/, e.g.
index-format.txt and pack-format.txt.

However not everything is available there. For current work on
those formats, check the mailing list archive, e.g. [1]
