Heh.  :-)

I probably shouldn't mention this until after 1.5.0 is out the door,
but I'm working on a prototype pack version 4 format that thus far
would save at least 5.6 MiB on that pack, and make revision traversal
significantly faster.  (Yes, eat your cake and have it too!)

I'm not done though. I'm sure I can do better.  I've only mucked
with part of what I'm thinking of doing.

Yes, the code stays backward compatible.  Just like OBJ_OFS_DELTA,
pack version 4 is a one-way upgrade, but can be undone by simply
repacking that repository without the option enabled.
