When there are too many packfiles in a repository (which is not
recommended), looking up an object in these would require
consulting many pack .idx files; a new mechanism to have a single
file that consolidates all of these .idx files is introduced.
Ready to move to 'next', with some known issues to be followed up?

I'm not sure if there is anything actionable for me to do in response to
this message.

This message is in regard to UX around the usage output when the
command-line arguments are incorrect. The recommendation is to
explicitly state what the user did that is incorrect. For such a simple
usage line, I don't think this is necessary. The message also included this:
I wouldn't want to see a re-roll just for this, especially for such a
long series. Perhaps such a change can be done as a follow-up patch by
someone at some point.
If this is something we _really_ want to do, then I will tackle it in my
follow-up series that adds a 'verify' verb (thus complicating the usage and
giving me an opportunity to improve this area).
Thanks,
