pack-objects: fill a packbuilder from a walk Most use-cases for the object packer communicate in terms of commits which each side has. We already have an object to specify this relationship between commits, namely git_revwalk. By knowing which commits we want to pack and which the other side already has, we can perform similar optimisations to git, by marking each tree as interesting or uninteresting only once, and not sending those trees which we know the other side has.
