Towards that end, then, teach git repack to enumerate the COMMITs and TREEs in kept packs and mark them as UNINTERESTING for pack-object's operation. Because this creates UNINTERESTING marks, we make repack's --assume-pack-keep-transitive imply --sparse for pack-object to avoid hauling the entire object graph into memory. In testing with a 203GB repository with 80M objects, this amounts to several gigabytes of memory and over ten minutes saved. This machine has 32G of RAM and the repository is on a fast SSD to speed testing. All told, this test repository takes about 33 minutes elapsed (28 minutes in user code) and 3 GB of RAM to repack 12M objects occupying 33GB scattered across 477 pack files not marked as kept (the remainder of the objects are spread across three kept pack files). The time and RAM usage with --assume-pack-keep-transitive should be dominated by factors proportional to the size and number of un-kept objects. Without these optimizations, it takes about 45 minutes (34 minutes in user code) and 7 GB of RAM to compute the same pack file. The extra time and total memory use are expected to be proportional to the kept packs' size, not the working set of the repack. The time discrepancy can be expected to be more dramatic when the repository is on spinning rust rather than SSD.
