I didn't have many comments in this round. Personally though I'd split
up this patch series into two in order to land the individual parts
faster, where the first part introduces `git for-each-ref --exclude` and
the second part introduces the jump list for the packed-refs backend.

Each of these have merit on their own, and especially the first part
should require less discussion. Furthermore, by splitting it up the
review becomes easier to manage as 16 patches does require quite a long
attention span to handle.

Anyway, this is just a suggestion from my sided, please feel free to
ignore.
