You raise a very valid point. FWIW, I originally wrote these patches as
just "enumerate the objects in these small packs, make a new pack out of
those, and then (optionally) delete the small ones. I abandoned that
idea because it needs special handling for loose objects, and it has no
idea which objects are unreachable, etc.

But maybe it is time to go back to the drawing board there. Perhaps a
`--geometric` repack implies that we keep unreachable objects in effect,
and that a full repack (i.e., one that does reachability analysis) is
required to drop them.

Other ideas are welcome.

Thanks,
Taylor
