That is one thing > that my git-exproll script did. I'm certainly not opposed, and this could certainly be done in an additive way (i.e., after this series). I think the current approach has nice properties, but I could also see "roll-up all packs that have mtimes after xyz timestamp" being useful. It would even be possible to reuse a lot of the geometric repack machinery. Having a separate path to arrange packs by their mtimes and determine the "split" at pack whose mtime is nearest the provided one would do exactly what you want. (As a side-note, reading the original threads about your git-exproll was quite humbling, since it turns out all of the problems I thought were hard had already been discussed eight years ago!)
