A quick "git grep packfile" vs "git grep pack-file" inside
Documentation/ directory indicates that we seem to use 'packfile'
primarily in the lower-level technical documents that are not
end-user facing.  Almost half of them are in the release notes
that we won't bother "fixing", so it might make sense to go the
other way around, consistently using "pack-file" that may be more
familiar to end-users.

What do others think?

If I saw "pack-file" (outside of this discussion) I would think it was
wrong. That's just my opinion, of course.

Searching for "packfile" on the list yields 2145 messages. Searching for
"pack-file" yields 764. Searching for "pack file" yields 2007 (maybe
more, as my grep did not take into account line breaks).
