Compressing loose objects into pack files, e.g. turning this...

$ gotadmin info 
repository: /home/naddy/src.git
pack files: 12
packed objects: 2077644
packed total size: 1.3G
loose objects: 599
loose total size: 2.0M

... into 13 pack files and 0 loose objects.

I cloned a pristine copy of FreeBSD src.git, and I'm currently
exploding the pack file with "git unpack-objects" into a few million
loose objects.  That should give me something to test.
