Re: [PATCH v3 0/9] repack: introduce `--write-midx`

Taylor Blau [off-list ref] writes:

Here is another small reroll of my series to implement the final component of
multi-pack reachability bitamps, which is to be able to write them from `git
repack`.

This version incorporates feedback from Jonathan Tan and others at Google who
graciously provided review. A range-diff is included below, but the major
changes are:

  - A comment to explain the relationship between 'ctx->m' and 'ctx->to_include'
    in midx.c:add_pack_to_midx().

  - A comment to explain the meaning of write_midx_file_only().

  - Clean-up of stray hunks, a missing strbuf_release().

  - Replacing the name `existing_packs` with `existing_nonkept_packs` to
    emphasize the relationship between it and the similarly-named
    `existing_kept_packs`.

Instead of depending on tb/multi-pack-bitmaps, this series now depends on the
tip of master.

... as the topic already graduated to 'master' ;-)

But applying them on the same base as the previous round and merging
the result to 'master', and applying them on 'master', will give us
identical trees.

Will replace; thanks.
