Any improvement in this respect is appreciated.

Minor nit: By all means while you are in this area, please do not carry 
over this silly "your repository has *approximately* 576 objects" message 
(highlight is mine). "576" is not approximate. "500" is approximate, "750" 
is, too, but "1024" etc. is not. ;-)
