Ok, it works now. My new git repository is only 60Mo. But :), I would
like to make up my public repository based on this "light" repository.
And if someone has the big repository, I would like him to be able to
pull my public repo into his one. But since I used grafting to "cut"
my light repo and .git/info/grafts file is not copied during
push/pull/clone operations it's not going to work. Is it a scheme that
could work ?

Moreover, I'm wondering if my public repository really needs to store
big repo's pack files as it is described in git tutorial ?

Thanks
