Re: [PATCH v2 2/2] pack-objects: don't loosen objects available in alternate or kept packs

> If pack-objects is called with the --unpack-unreachable option then it will
> unpack (i.e. loosen) all unreferenced objects from local not-kept packs,
> including those that also exist in packs residing in an alternate object
> database or a local kept pack.  The primary(sole?) user of this option is
> git-repack.  In this case, repack will follow the call to pack-objects with
> a call to prune-packed which will delete these newly loosened objects,
> making the act of loosening a waste of time.  The unnecessary loosening can
> be avoided by checking whether an object exists in a non-local pack or a
> local kept pack before loosening it.

> This fixes the 'local packed unreachable obs that exist in alternate ODB
> are not loosened' test in t7700.
