However, they're not really errors, since we will try to find the object elsewhere (and generally succeed). So the messages could just go away. Though they can also alert you to something fishy going on (like a packfile with bad permissions). But perhaps we should downgrade them like this: -- >8 -- Subject: [PATCH] downgrade "packfile cannot be accessed" errors to warnings These can happen if another process simultaneously prunes a pack. But that is not usually an error condition, because a properly-running prune should have repacked the object into a new pack. So we will notice that the pack has disappeared unexpectedly, print a message, try other packs (possibly after re-scanning the list of packs), and find it in the new pack.
