Hi,

I am trying implement git incremental clone/fetch
Please check https://github.com/Shakthi/gitreclone/blob/master/gitreclone
Basically, I am trying to use temporary git packs to avoid re-fetching
of the objects. However, it seems git ignores unpacked objects, and
git-fetch starts again from 0%.

Basically I use, "cat tmp_packs*|git-unpack-objects" . Log indicates
that, objects are unpacked.

Am I doing anything wrong,
Thanks
Shakthi
