I reversed the meaning of the high bit by mistake. In pack-files, the high bit is a "there is more to come" bit, and in my new code it was a "this is the last byte" bit. It doesn't matter for the ultimate reason for this (being able to re-use the actual _bulk_ of the data), but having it be different would be stupid and confusing, and means that we can't later try to use the same routines for packing/unpacking the objects. Junio - do you want me to send an updated patch, or do you want to reverse bit#7 yourself?
