core: log offset pack data accesses happened

gitster · gitster · commit 5f44324d88a6 · 2011-07-06T19:09:29.000-07:00
In a workload other than "git log" (without pathspec nor any option that
causes us to inspect trees and blobs), the recency pack order is said to
cause the access jump around quite a bit. Add a hook to allow us observe
how bad it is.

"git config core.logpackaccess /var/tmp/pal.txt" will give you the log
in the specified file.
