I'm happy to see this all marked as experimental. We really don't know
what selection approach will be best yet, and it's good not to lock
ourselves in.

I wasn't sure how this would format via asciidoc, since we're in the
middle of a list of variables. It...kind of looks like the note goes
under the previous entry (for attr.tree) in the text manpage. Though
looking at the docbook, I _think_ it's actually outside of that, and
it's just how the roff ends up indenting it?

I don't know if it's worth spending too much time on, but maybe there's
an easy way to do it differently (I couldn't think of one).

This paragraph might also be a good place to refer to gitpacking(7).

Thanks, I think this new file and the content you added address all of
my documentation complaints.

I think it will also be a good place to discuss bitmaps in general, but
you were IMHO wise to not do that in this series, which is already quite
big. :)
