+-b::
+--write-bitmap-index::
+ Write a reachability bitmap index as part of the repack. This
+ only makes sense when used with `-a` or `-A`, as the bitmaps
+ must be able to refer to all reachable objects. This option
+ overrides the setting of `pack.writebitmaps`.
+
+--pack-kept-objects::
+ Include objects in `.keep` files when repacking. Note that we
+ still do not delete `.keep` packs after `pack-objects` finishes.
+ This means that we may duplicate objects, but this makes the
+ option safe to use when there are concurrent pushes or fetches.
+ This option is generally only useful if you are writing bitmaps
+ with `-b` or `pack.writebitmaps`, as it ensures that the
+ bitmapped packfile has the necessary objects.
