barkalow@iabervon.orgIIRC, git-local-pull still doesn't work for a packed source repository, because it doesn't include the possibility of copying a pack (or extracting an object) if the requested object is in a pack.
I can probably fix it if anyone cares, but it's not something I use personally, so I don't know if it's worthwhile. It should probably be removed if we don't fix it, since it will fail on any popular repository at this point.

I want to use it in Cogito again, since copying everything obviously sucks and I want to hardlink, so repacking is not a solution either. Didn't you post some patches to fix this long time ago, actually?

Not for local-pull; I only did the other two. local-pull is special, because it's actually dealing with files on disk, and it also has to look at a repository that isn't what you're using.
