I'm undecided about that. On the one hand this does create lots of small
files and inevitably causes (some) performance degradation. On the other
hand, I don't want to keep useless objects in the pack, because that
would also cause performance degradation for people cloning the "mother
repo." If my assumptions on any of that are incorrect, I'm happy to
learn more.

Best,
