In order to stop sharing objects/ directly between shared projects, we have to fetch the remote objects into project-objects/ manually. So instead of running git operations in the individual project dirs and relying on .git/objects being symlinked to project-objects/, tell git to store any objects it fetches in project-objects/. We do this by leveraging the GIT_OBJECT_DIRECTORY override. This has been in git forever, or at least since v1.7.2 which is what we already hard require. This tells git to save new objects to the specified path no matter where it's being run otherwise. We still otherwise run git in the project-specific dir so that it can find the right set of refs that it wants to compare against, including local refs. For that reason, we also have to leverage GIT_ALTERNATE_OBJECT_DIRECTORIES to tell git where to find objects that are not in the upstream remote. This way git doesn't blow up when it can't find objects only associated with local commits. As it stands right now, the practical result is the same: since we symlink the project objects/ dir to the project-objects/ tree, the default objects dir, the one we set $GIT_OBJECT_DIRECTORY to, and the one we set $GIT_ALTERNATE_OBJECT_DIRECTORIES to are actually all the same. So this commit by itself should be safe. But in a follow up commit, we can replace the symlink with a separate dir and git will keep working.

repo
Repo is a tool built on top of Git. Repo helps manage many Git repositories, does the uploads to revision control systems, and automates parts of the development workflow. Repo is not meant to replace Git, only to make it easier to work with Git. The repo command is an executable Python script that you can put anywhere in your path.

Contact
Please use the repo-discuss mailing list or issue tracker for questions.
You can file a new bug report under the "repo" component.
Please do not e-mail individual developers for support. They do not have the bandwidth for it, and often times questions have already been asked on repo-discuss or bugs posted to the issue tracker. So please search those sites first.
Install
Many distros include repo, so you might be able to install from there.
# Debian/Ubuntu.
$ sudo apt-get install repo
# Gentoo.
$ sudo emerge dev-vcs/repo
You can install it manually as well as it's a single script.
$ mkdir -p ~/.bin
$ PATH="${HOME}/.bin:${PATH}"
$ curl https://storage.googleapis.com/git-repo-downloads/repo > ~/.bin/repo
$ chmod a+rx ~/.bin/repo
