Dear diary, on Mon, Jul 03, 2006 at 10:48:03PM CEST, I got a letter
where Petr Baudis <pasky@suse.cz> said that...

To further clarify, this only invalidates the path cache and grafts
list, not alternates (it assumes the environment variable stays the
same for now; that is to be fixed when we extend Git.pm further)
and not pack list - we will automagically extend the list of packs when
we meet more repositories, but we will never remove old packs from the
list. (For no special reason other than this does no harm other than
possibly finding objects that should be missing, and the patch smells
bad enough enough as it is now. ;-)
