I don't think it will after pack-objects is taught about .keep files, and
In that case you're almost certainly breaking something.
I don't think it will _now_ if all of your packs have .keep files.
It should, by copying the objects from the .keep-marked packfiles. Otherwise
either repack or the repack docs are in error.
'repack -a' will call pack-objects with either '--unpack=<packfile>' for
each pack file without a .keep file, or with '--unpacked --incremental' if
there are no pack files without .keep files.
In the first case, the modifications to pack-objects that I propose
will prevent objects that exist in local packs with .keep files
from being packed into the new pack.
In the second case, the --incremental option would have done the same thing.
So this inconsistency already existed, but will now be removed in favor of
honoring .keep files.
That means the nifty hack of incrementally and sometimes fully repack the
odb to speed up cloning over dumb protocols no longer works properly, then.
