A constant stream of traffic to either httpd/nntpd would mean git-cat-file processes never expire. Things can go bad after a full repack, as a full repack will unlink old pack indices and git-cat-file does not currently detect unlinked files. We could do something complicated by recursively stat-ing objects/pack of every git directory and alternate; but that's probably not worth the trouble compared to occasionally restarting the cat-file process. So simplify the code and let httpd/nntpd expire them periodically, since spawning a "git-cat-file --batch" process isn't too expensive. We already spawn for every request which hits git-http-backend, cgit, and git-apply. In the future, we may optionally support the Git::Raw module to avoid IPC; but we must remain careful to not leave lingering FDs open to unlinked files after repack.
