So can we really just take (total_objects - commit_graph_objects) and
compare it to some threshold?
The commit-graph only stores the number of _commits_, not total objects.
Oh, right, of course. That does throw a monkey wrench in that line of
thought. ;)
There's unfortunately not a fast way of doing that. One option would be
to keep a counter of "ungraphed commit objects", and have callers update
it. Anybody admitting a pack via index-pack or unpack-objects can easily
get this information. Commands like fast-import can do likewise, and
"git commit" obviously increments it by one.
I'm not excited about adding a new global on-disk data structure (and
the accompanying lock).
If we want, then we can add an optional chunk to the commit-graph file
that stores the object count.
