Is the tree associated with a notes commit limited to a single level,
or is there some attempt to balance the tree as the number of
annotated objects increases?

If the tree is currently restricted to a single level, is this
eventually going to be a problem as the number of annotated objects
continues to grow?

Apologies if this question is answered with trivial analysis of the
code, I admittedly haven't done that.

Output from "git log master..0ce25c4b" and especially and c07d5eb (t3305:
Verify that adding many notes with git-notes triggers increased fanout,
2010-01-27) and 71942f4 (t3305: Verify that removing notes triggers
automatic fanout consolidation, 2010-01-27) would be of interest.
