I am not sure about the "unless -f option is given" part, but a
single .kept pack that contains only problematic blobs would be
an interesting experiment.
(0) prepare object names of problematic blobs, in huge.txt, one
object name per line;
(1) prepare a single pack that has them:
$ N=$(git-pack-object --depth=0 --window=0 pack <huge.txt)
$ echo 'Huge blobs -- do not repack' >pack-$N.keep
$ mv pack-$N.* .git/object/pack/.
(2) repack the remainder, with the default depth/window:
$ git repack -a -d
$ git prune
