A stupid and brute force way is to prepare an empty bare repository, add
something like the following to its config:
[transfer]
unpacklimit = 1
[gc]
auto = 0
autopacklimit = 0
and push into it from a random existing repository starting from a
reasonably old commit, walking to a newer commit. You can use something
like (totally untested):
git rev-list --first-parent master |
head -n 2000 |
tac |
while read commit
do
git push ../victim.git $commit:refs/heads/master
done

As long as the use of osfhandles for non filedescriptors is reasonably
bounded, it may be enough to make the 25 slop configurable per platform,
no?
