Thanks - the differences are quite minor, and they generally make sense.
The main one is that finish_object() in builtin/rev-list.c now returns
int instead of void, but that makes sense.

Other than that:

 - I think you accidentally squashed the rev-list commit into
   "sha1_file: support lazily fetching missing objects".
 - The documentation for --exclude-promisor-objects in
   git-pack-objects.txt should be "Omit objects that are known to be in
   the promisor remote". (This option has the purpose of operating only
   on locally created objects, so that when we repack, we still maintain
   a distinction between locally created objects [without .promisor] and
   objects from the promisor remote [with .promisor].)
 - The transport options in gitremote-helpers.txt could have the same
   documentation as in transport.h.
