No.  I would understand if it is spelled '.idx', to refer to a
concrete file suffix that people would type verbatim.  In this
sentence, however, I think "idx file" and "pack file" are used as a
general noun.

Given these entries in Documentation/glossary-content.adoc

        [[def_hash]]hash::
                In Git's context, synonym for <<def_object_name,object name>>.
        [[def_object_identifier]]object identifier (oid)::
                Synonym for <<def_object_name,object name>>.

I do not think so, and if we find somebody doing so, we should
correct them.

Once the dust settles from this series, yes, but not in this series
that is about mark-up.

Thanks.
