The maximum delta depth used by gitlink:git-pack-objects[1] when no
maximum depth is given on the command line. Defaults to 50.
pack.windowMemory::
The window memory size limit used by gitlink:git-pack-objects[1]
when no limit is given on the command line. The value can be
suffixed with "k", "m", or "g". Defaults to 0, meaning no
limit.
pack.compression::
An integer -1..9, indicating the compression level for objects
in a pack file. -1 is the zlib default. 0 means no

The default value for --window is 10 and --depth is 50.
--window-memory=[N]::
This option provides an additional limit on top of `--window`;
the window size will dynamically scale down so as to not take
up more than N bytes in memory. This is useful in
repositories with a mix of large and small objects to not run
out of memory with a large window, but still be able to take
advantage of the large window for the smaller objects. The
size can be suffixed with "k", "m", or "g".
`--window-memory=0` makes memory usage unlimited, which is the
default.
--max-pack-size=<n>::
Maximum size of each output packfile, expressed in MiB.
If specified, multiple packfiles may be created.
