I was on a crappy connection and it was frustrated seeing git-clone reached 80% then failed, then started over again. Can we support resumable git-clone at some level? I think we could split into several small packs, keep fetched ones, just get missing packs until we have all. I didn't clone via http so I don't know if http supports resumable.
