Do echo "/source/git/project/.git/objects/" > .git/objects/info/alternates and then follow it up with git repack -a -d -l where the "-l" means that it will only put _local_ objects in the pack-file (strictly speaking, it will put any loose objects from the alternate tree too, so you'll have a fully packed archive, but it won't duplicate objects that are already packed in the alternate tree).
