But maybe on repo.or.cz we can do something about it? Like using a global object database, or actually teaching git about _splitting_ object databases into parts: something along the lines of "we repack the forked projects before the forkees. That way, the objects will be still there when the forkee "lost" them, but will be repacked into the forked project's database".
