Hello,

Just FYI, there is already a series on the list I'm currently working on
that is extending the "structure" output for git-repo [1] similar to
what is being done here. This series collects largest inflated object
info, max commit parents, and max tree entries. It does look like this
series is collecting a couple of other data points too, but maybe we
could do so it a separate followup series to the one I'm working on? :)

Thanks,
-Justin
