It seems to me that the reason are dumb transports, which are very likely 
to run only from bare repositories. How about checking for a bare 
repository explicitely, and only if it _is_ bare, check for gc.packrefs, 
too?

Packed refs _do_ have a tremendous advantage (when you have a lot of tags, 
like many CVS switchers).
