No, that's just too scary. But..

That would be much better. The code was ported from shell script, and
there is no fsync() in shell, but the rule should basically be that you
can remove all the objects that correspond to a pack-file after you have
made sure that the pack-file (and it's index - we can re-generate the pack
index, but realistically speaking it's *much* better to not have to) is
stable on disk.
Soemthing like this *may* work. THIS IS TOTALLY UNTESTED. And when I say
"TOTALLY UNTESTED", I mean it. Zero testing. None. Nada. Zilch. Testing is
for people who are actually interested in the feature (hint, hint).
But if somebody tests this and actually does an strace and sees that yes,
it does the fsync() on each pack-file it cares about, then I'll happily
sign off on this patch. It's fairly obvious.
What it does is to make "has_sha1_pack()" return the actual packed_git
pointer it found that contains the SHA1 in question, instead of just an
integer boolean. That changes no users, since everybody tests it for just
truthiness value anyway.
It then introduces a "sha1_is_stably_packed()" function that not just
looks up the pack entry, but also does an fsync() on it if it isn't
already marked stable. Fairly trivial, as I said. But this is important
code, so it really does need actual real-life testing. Trivial code often
has trivial bugs.
