fast-import doesn't do fancy delta compression becayse that would
defeat the "fast" part of fast-import.
Just do a git repack after the import to do the proper repacking. I
get a 41Mb packfile when I try that on your repo.
So a simple
git repack -adf
should fix things up for you (the "-f" to make sure it doesn't try to
re-use things from the silly bad pack). Alternatively, use "git gc
--aggressive", which will do that forced repack too.
