The patch still works.  The main problem with report-fd is that it
introduced a synchronization point after every commit: the frontend
has to read the commit id before fast-import will continue.

So if the reports can be made optional ("report _this_ commit") or
batched ("report all marked commits") then the result would be easier
to use imho.

Right.  Another reason to delay getting rid of the git branch with the
full repo.
