I guess that was the idea. But we fall back to getting patches normally
anyway if anything fails with the packs:

copyCompleteRepoPacked from to verb cloneKind =
    copyCompleteRepoPacked2 from to verb cloneKind
  `catch`
    \(e :: SomeException) -> do
      putStrLn ("Exception while getting patches pack:\n" ++ show e)
      putVerbose verb $ text "Problem while copying patches pack,
copying normally."
      copyCompleteRepoNotPacked from to verb cloneKind

Cheers
Ben
