I guess it continues twice as two large series were merged? ;-)
sb/object-store-grafts
sb/object-store-lookup

The latter one is not the correct one, as later we'll have

    in-core object for a specific in-core repository instance.

Personally I do not view this as a bug fix but a feature
(but then again my thinking might be tainted of too much
submodule work) hence I would not merge it down.
