Just do a git repack after the import to do the proper repacking. I get a 41Mb packfile when I try that on your repo. So a simple git repack -adf should fix things up for you (the "-f" to make sure it doesn't try to re-use things from the silly bad pack). Alternatively, use "git gc --aggressive", which will do that forced repack too. Linus
