It crunches on the disk for a couple of seconds, that's fine, but then I notice the disk activity stop and git-local-pull becomes cpu bound and grows to 80MB in size over the course of 5 minutes. Is this a side effect of the new pack/unpack stuff? Compared to what this thing is doing, manually symlinking the object database, copying over the HEAD, and building the index file is significantly faster. Actually, git-clone-script didn't build an index file. So the compute time definitely came from something else entirely.
