Agreed. The patch I posted back then was on fetch as a signle fetch is
more likely to bring a lot of new objects in. (Moreso than a commit)

Repack-on-commit if there's more than 1k unpacked objects makes sense.
Are fetches nowaways always using the "keep pack" and "fatten thin
pack" semantics? If yes, then

cheers,
