I may have created my ~/git/src.git with `git clone --bare', it's been a
while and I don't really remember, sorry.

To be sure thought I've just re-cloned and it's still the same:

    % got clone ssh://git@github.com/openbsd/src src.git
    ...
    % cd src.git
    % /usr/local/bin/gotadmin -V
    gotadmin 0.69
    % time /usr/local/bin/gotadmin pack -a
    219540 commits colored; 2089108 objects found; 1010577 trees scanned
    packing 4 references; 2089108 objects; deltify: 100%; writing pack:
    1.2G 100%

P.S.: your latest patch cuts `pack -a' down by almost 4 minutes on
      src.git!
