Yeah I thought about those 27 bits but discarded it because it was not that much. But now that you brought up the maintainability aspect of it, it might make sense to move those bits out (if we manage to make commit-slab (or a specialized version of it) manage bitmaps instead of primitive types, which is not impossible).

I don't understand the tying to struct rev_info though. This is a struct definition and cannot really be tied to another struct. The pointer to struct source_slab _is_ tied to struct rev_info.

It should be ok. The slab is indexed by the "commit index" which is already per parsed_object_pool. Commit-slab user has to be careful to use the right slab with the right repo and free it at the right time, but that I think is outside with struct repository.
