Just a small thing I would like to bring to your attention before 1.5.4 is out

During my work on compression/decompression cleanup I have found that in fast-import.c the zlib_compression_level is used, while in builtin-pack-objects is used pack_compression_level instead.

This 2 flags corresponds, more or less directly, (some cleanup is needed also in that area, but this is another story) to:

core.loosecompression
and
pack.compression
config settings.

My question is, does fast-import should use pack.compression instead of core.loosecompression?

Thanks Marco
