Hi Jeff, sorry for long reply.

You need "strace -f". The parent repack process spawns pack-objects (via
the clone() call above), and then waits for it to print the name of the
generated pack at the end. So it will stall on that read() for quite a
while, even under normal circumstances.

Now on my clone, git count-objects -v says:
count: 0
size: 0
in-pack: 3469192
packs: 7
size-pack: 2181233
prune-packable: 0
garbage: 0
size-garbage: 0
And I have 60211 commits, with the oldest tag available is v3.15-rc3.
Here is excerpt from strace -f just before I triggered SIGINT due to hang:

The last write() sequence seems running repeatedly, what it means? Infinite loop?
