Paradoxically with this you can no longer use a repo that's not git.git
or another repo that has submodules, since we'll die in trying to remove
them.

Also you don't have to "git rm .gitmodules", the "git rm" command
removes submodule entries.

Perhaps just:

    for module in $(git ls-files --stage | grep ^160000 | awk -F '\t' '{ print $2 }')
    do
        git rm "$module"
    done

Or another way of guarding against rm getting the empty list && commit?

But it seems odd to be doing this at all, the point of the perf
framework is that you can point it at any repo, and some repos you want
to test will have submodules.

Seems like something like the WIP patch at the end on top would be
better.

Isn't the way we're getting this $BLOB equivalent to just 'echo bogus |
git hash-object --stdin -w' why commit it?

This whole thing makes me think you just wanted a test_perf_fresh_repo
all along, but I think this would be much more useful if you took the
default repo and multiplied the size in its tree by some multiple.

E.g. take the files we have in git.git, write a copy at prefix-1/,
prefix-2/ etc.

The whole point of test_perf_{default,large}_repo is being able to point
them at a local repo you're testing for performance and get numbers
representative of that repo.

So maybe that's not what's wanted here at all, but that brings us back
to test_perf_fresh_repo...
