I don't think you can mix the two, because how my local clone looks depends on when I run git pull. My local Git doesn't repack to match packs on the remote. The logical contents will be equivalent but the underlying data structure will be different, so rsync only works the first time. FWIW I also liked the look of squashdelta. //Peter
