Just keep in mind that pack-redundant does not have > that part. For pack-redundant, isn't it because there is no need to find suitable replacement? That is, instead of finding a redundant pack, all of whose objects are contained in some other packs, which practically is impossible to exist in a non-toy repository, and deal with it yourself, you can let the normal "repack" to eject redundant objects from all the non-kept packs. > I think I’ll use that suggestion verbatim. Sounds good.
