You should see the:

progress. We used to follow that with:

  Resolving deltas: 100% (249340/249340), done.

but now you get nothing for several seconds while we resolve deltas.

The problem bisects to f08cbf60fe (index-pack: make quantum of work
smaller, 2020-09-08) at the tip of jt/threaded-index-pack. I haven't dug
further yet.

Hmm. That commit removes the call to display_progress() from the main
loop of threaded_second_pass(), and doesn't appear to add another one
anywhere. Is the solution really as simple as adding it back in? I.e.

diff --git a/builtin/index-pack.c b/builtin/index-pack.c
index 8acd078aa0..6dbb4317e0 100644
--- a/builtin/index-pack.c

That _seems_ to work fine, but I'm not sure why it was removed in the
first place (for a good reason, or simply as an accident when rewriting
the variable declarations at the top of the loop?).
