Try out version 1.2.3.

Forget them for now -- they won't help you.

Yes there is, as long as you have version 1.2.3.  The clone logic will 
simply reuse already packed data without attempting to recompute it.

They (actually the last one) might help reduce the size of resulting 
packs but it currently has performance problems with some patological 
data sets.

I think you really should try git version 1.2.3 with a packed 
repository.  It might handle your special case just fine.
