Ævar: I'm still waiting on the full version of this. While you
updated [1] your original RFC [2], it was incomplete. I am still
looking forward to seeing your full vision of how it works with
incremental fetch and how your optimizations to download only the
headers of the bundles will work.
[1] [RFC PATCH v2 00/13] bundle-uri: a "dumb CDN" for git

[2] [RFC PATCH 00/13] Add bundle-uri: resumably clones, static "dumb" CDN etc.

Or perhaps you are jumping straight to this part?

I'm still looking forward to seeing progress in this area. Please
let me know what your plan is here.
