The commit-graph could be shared, as the commits in each enlistment can 
be parsed from local with GENERATION_NUMBER_INFINITY, giving us similar 
speedups.

The issue is: who updates the file? As the commit-graph gets behind, 
performance will degrade. But it seems like you'd need similar 
maintenance on the alternate object store, anyway.

Thanks,
