This hardcoded 20 on the right hand side of this #define is probably
problematic. Unless you are planning to possibly store truncated
hash value for some future hash algorithm, GRAPH_OID_LEN_$HASH should
always be the same as GIT_$HASH_RAWSZ, I would think. IOW
#define GRAPH_OID_LEN_SHA1 GIT_SHA1_RAWSZ
perhaps?

If count and list are always incremented in unison, perhaps you do
not need an extra variable "last". If typeof(nr_commits) is wider
than typeof(count), this loop and the next write-be32 is screwed
anyway ;-)
This comment probably applies equally to some other uses of the same
"compute last pointer to compare with running pointer for
termination" pattern in this patch.

It is a bit unusual to see something_pos() that returns an integer
that does *NOT* return the position as its return value. Dropping
the *pos parameter, and returning "mid" when commits[mid] is what we
wanted to see, and otherwise returning "-1 - first" to signal the
position at which we _would_ have found the object, if it were in
the table, would make it more consistent with the usual convention.
Don't we even have such a generalized binary search helper already
somewhere in the system?

This is equivalent to checking "int_id & GRAPH_LARGE_EDGES_NEEDED",
right? Not suggesting to use the other form of checks, but trying
to see what's the best way to express it in the most readable way.

It feels somewhat wasteful to traverse the commit's parents list
only to count, without populating the octopus table (which I
understand is assumed to be minority case under this design).

OK, the undefined pattern in the previous round is now gone ;-) Good.

What does "swap_" in the name of this variable mean? For some
archs, there is no swap. The only difference between int_id and the
variable is that its MSB may possibly be smudged with last_edge bit.
This is a tangent, but after having seen many instances of "int_id",
I started to feel that it is grossly misnamed. We do not care about
its "int" ness---what's more significant about it is that we use can
it as a short identifier in place for a full object name, given the
table of known OIDs. "oid_table_index" may be a better name (but
others may be able to suggest even better one).
int pos;
pos = commit_pos(commits, nr_commits, parent->item->object.oid);
oid_table_pos = (pos < 0) ? GRAPH_PARENT_MISSING : pos;
if (!parent->net)
oid_table_pos |= GRAPH_LAST_EDGE;
oid_table_pos = htonl(oid_table_pos);
sha1write(f, &oid_table_pos, sizeof(oid_table_pos));
or something like that, perhaps?

I think oidcmp() takes const pointers, so there is no need to
discard constness from the parameter like this code does. Also I
think we tend to prefer writing a_/b_ (instead of _a/_b) to appease
language lawyers who do not want us mere mortals to use names that
begin with underscore.

That is a strange name. "collect packed commits", perhaps?

Heh, traditionalist would probably avoid unnecessary use of float
and use something like 1/4 or 1/8 ;-) After all, it is merely a
ballpark guestimate.
> + num_long_edges = 0;
This again is about naming, but I find it a bit unnatural to call
the edge between a chind and its octopus parents "long". Individual
edges are not long--the only thing that is long is your "list of
edges". Some other codepaths in this patch seems to call the same
concept with s/long/large/, which I found somewhat puzzling.

OK, so we count how many entries we will record in the overflow
parent table, and...

... if we do not have any octopus commit, we do not need the chunk
for the overflow parent table. Makes sense.

It is not performance critical, but it feels a bit wasteful to
opendir merely to see if something exists as a directory, and it is
misleading to the readers (it looks as if we care about what files
we already have in the directory).
The approach that optimizes for the most common case would be to
- prepare full path to the tempfile first
- try create with mkstemp
- if successful, you do not have to worry about creating
the directory at all, which is the most common case
- see why mkstemp step above failed. Was it because you
did not have the surrounding directory?
- if not, there is no point continuing. Just error out.
- if it was due to missing directory, try creating one.
- try create with mkstemp
- if successful, all is well.
- otherwise there isn't anything more we can do here.

Do we have to care about overflowing any of the above? For example,
the format allows only up to (1<<31)-1 commits, but did something
actually check if commits.nr at this point stayed under that limit?
