This i great news. I've been thinking about it, praying that you'd come
and do the work. :)

Will the net effect, in practice, be the same on Jgit as on C Git?

Something missing in the formatting?

Yum, yum. My 15 minute review so far likes it.

And there goes the unit test for reading them...

I'm considering dropping stacked git support. We should have much
more of it and I don't use it myself anymore to what support we have
gets very little testing.

I'm surprised *you* didn't know about them bitcounting algorithm java uses 
before. It's pretty common.

Very good work (as always) Shawn. I've only read the code so far. I'll do some 
testing too before pushing. Do you have any unit tests for the v2 pack format 
(config reading too for that matter)?
