Is 4ba6c1c advertised as a ref by the remote? If not, what is probably happening is that the client doesn't realize that the server already has 4ba6c1c, so the client needs to fetch 4ba6c1c's objects to send it to the server. I am planning to see if I can add batch prefetching to pack-objects to reduce the severity of similar situations (just one batch prefetch instead of many one-by-one fetches), although that would work better with a blob filter instead of a tree filter.
