They don't help yet, and there's no good reason to enable bitmaps for
clients. I have a few patches that use bitmaps for things like
ahead/behind and --contains checks, but the utility of those may be
lessened quite a bit by Stolee's commit-graph work.  And if it isn't,
I'm mildly in favor of replacing the existing .bitmap format with
something better integrated with commit-graphs (which would give us an
opportunity to clean up some of the rough edges).
