I forgot to mention that I obtained an ~800MB repository
with git 1.5.0.x after increasing the window size to 20.
Now I don't know what is going on, I tried to reproduce my packfile
and get a 1.4GB packfile. But I'm sure I redid the same operations?
I'd just disregard my size numbers until I can figure out what I've
done wrong.

Did you enable UseDeltaBaseOffset perhaps? Or any of the git-gc
configuration parameters?
I did recently upgrade to the tip of 'next' branch of git, will go
back to my previous version.
I have set
[core]
legacyheaders = false
[repack]
usedeltabaseoffset = true
in my .gitconfig.
Please, make your tree available for inspection.
If I can reproduce it I'll see if I can find some webspace.
