But see the last paragraph of my review comments for the earlier round upthread. This particular function implements logic that is only applicable to blob objects, and streaming trees, commits, and tags will need their own separate helper functions. And when they are written, the top-level stream_to_pack() function can be reintroduced, which will be a thin dispatcher to the four type-specific helpers.
