Sure I can do this.

It didn't in my testing. However I need to do the "--init" to ensure all
the modules are correctly checked out. When manually deleting one of the
packs in my testing git did the right thing and fetched the missing pack
data. Once the submodules move forward I'll double check the incremental
update works as well.
