Resubmit to re-ignite interest in reviews, perhaps? As long as it is done right at the implementation level, I do not think there is anything controversial in the desired end result, iow it is not like we need three people who want to have repack rewritten in C for it to happen. It may be tricky to get the flushing of old and new packfiles right, though. Use of reprepare_packed_git() is prerequisite if you want to do it in a single process, but once you start using that API, it may not gain much performance benefit to link the whole pack-objects logic in to the process over a much simpler and less error prone approach of just rewriting the shell script straight to a small C program that spawns pack-objects binary.
