Yeah, good point. I reversed the meaning of the high bit by mistake. In
pack-files, the high bit is a "there is more to come" bit, and in my new
code it was a "this is the last byte" bit.
It doesn't matter for the ultimate reason for this (being able to re-use
the actual _bulk_ of the data), but having it be different would be stupid
and confusing, and means that we can't later try to use the same routines
for packing/unpacking the objects.
Junio - do you want me to send an updated patch, or do you want to reverse
bit#7 yourself?
Linus
