BTW I have code for an index version 2 that allows for 64-bit offsets. It also adds a CRC32 for each object data as stored in the pack to make data reuse safer when repacking. I only have to fix a couple loose ends before sending patches out. The new index only uses 64-bit offsets when it has to. Meaning that objects in front of a pack which usually are the most recent ones won't pay the overhead of a larger offset table at run time.
