Tree reloading allows fast-import to swap out the least-recently used branch by simply deallocating the data structures from memory that were associated with that branch. Later if the branch becomes active again it can lazily recreate those structures on demand by reloading the necessary trees from the pack file it originally wrote them to. The reloading process is implemented by mmap'ing the pack into memory and using a much tighter variant of the pack reading code contained in sha1_file.c. This was a blatent copy from sha1_file.c but the unpacking functions were significantly simplified and are actually now in a form that should make it easier to map only the necessary regions of a pack rather than the entire file.
