[PATCH 0/5] builtin/repack: make geometric repacking compatible with promisors

Hi,

I recently noticed that geometric repacking is incompatible with
promisor remotes. This is because we invoke git-pack-objects(1) with
both "--stdin-packs" and "--exclude-promisor-objects", and those flags
are mutually exclusive. Next to us dying though, we also don't have any
logic to mark merged packs as promisors in case any of the source packs
was a promisor.

This patch series fixes this by making these flags work with one another
and by introducing special handling for promisor packs during geometric
repacks.

Thanks!

Patrick
