Yes, if we want that warnings for diagnosing we shouldn't remove the related
path but I think it should build on the security concerns. I don't mean that
to warning the packfile name in a absolute path is a danger, but when serving
a git server maybe we don't want to expose the real path information on server
to client users.

That's exactly good suggestion. In my opinion, I think to avoid the sensitive
warning and the same time we keep some information to let the users know "Oh,
there are some extra existing bitmaps we just ignored then maybe can do some
optimization works", but I think just remove the total warning here is
reasonable also, i'm good with it.

Thanks.
