Large imports should be using fast-import, and then issue a single
massive `git repack -f --window=250 --depth=50` or some such repack
command after the entire import is complete.

If your favorite import tool (*cough* git-svn *cough*) can't use
fast-import, and you are importing a large enough repository that
this matters to you, use another importer that can use fast-import.
