Given that https://public-inbox.org/git/xmqqy46ntrhk.fsf@gitster.mtv.corp.google.com/ seems to have expected something to happen within a reasonable time frame, and that 8 months is substantially longer than a reasonable time frame, I am not sure that that position can still be defended.

Also, the more important reply was Peff's reply that suggested that the proposed fix was incomplete, as it misses --unpack-unreachable: https://public-inbox.org/git/20160601160143.GA9219@sigill.intra.peff.net/
