* tb/midx-avoid-cruft-packs (2025-06-23) 9 commits
 - repack: exclude cruft pack(s) from the MIDX where possible
 - pack-objects: introduce '--stdin-packs=follow'
 - pack-objects: swap 'show_{object,commit}_pack_hint'
 - pack-objects: fix typo in 'show_object_pack_hint()'
 - pack-objects: perform name-hash traversal for unpacked objects
 - pack-objects: declare 'rev_info' for '--stdin-packs' earlier
 - pack-objects: factor out handling '--stdin-packs'
 - pack-objects: limit scope in 'add_object_entry_from_pack()'
 - pack-objects: use standard option incompatibility functions

 "pack-objects" has been taught to avoid pointing into objects in
 cruft packs from midx.

 Will merge to 'next'?
 source: [ref]

I think that this one is ready to go. Since Elijah and Peff last
reviewed it, it hasn't changed substantially (other than a few
bugfix-related changes that were discovered while rolling this out at
GitHub).

The series has been running on GitHub's production infrastructure for
the last month or two without issue, so I think this is good from a
stability perspective.

I've CC'd Elijah and Peff here, since they were the last two to review
the series, but I don't think that they have any objections to this
moving along.

OK.  As they both seem to be active, let me wait for a bit and then
mark it for 'next' unless we hear anything unexpected.

Thanks.

Yep, I think this version is good to merge to next; thanks.

Thanks.
