That would solve the problem that fetching torvalds/linux from GitHub
yields a bigger pack than fetching it from kernel.org. But again, it's
making that root fork weirdly magical. People who fetch solely from
other forks won't get any benefit (and may even see worse packs).

Thanks for the explanation.
I think this discussion just hints at me being dense reading the
documentation. After all I like the concept.

I actually think it hints that the documentation in the commits
themselves is not adequate. :)
