It is always delightful to hear a well constructed description of a
thought process. Thanks.

One thing that made me wonder was what would happen to the
last_found that is static to has_sha1_pack_kept_or_nonlocal()
funciton, when we invalidate the packed_git list, but within the
context of pack-objects it is not likely?
