You're wrong, nothing has to be commited ~52 MiB to the repository. I'm not saying "commit", i'm saying "Assume A & B binary git repos and delta_B-A another binary file, i request built B' = A + delta_B-A where is verified SHA1(B') = SHA1(B) for avoiding corrupting". Assume B is the higher repacked version of "A + minor commits of the day" as if B was optimizing 24 hours more the minimum spanning tree.
