Could you clarify this paragraph a bit more?  It is unclear why the
repository has "all the blob objects" that it can loosen with repack
in the first place, if it was cloned without any blob.  Do you mean
that repack does not stop at the promisor pack boundary and instead
lazily download blobs "on-demand", which ends up as loose objects?

Thanks.
