`packfile` is a simple library providing utilities to generate [Git Packfiles] in memory.

Usage:
```rust
use packfile::{high_level::GitRepository, low_level::PackFile};

let mut repo = GitRepository::default();
repo.insert(&["path", "to"], "file.txt", "hello world!".into()).unwrap();
let (_commit_hash, entries) =
    repo.commit("Linus Torvalds", "torvalds@example.com", "Some commit message").unwrap();

let _packfile = PackFile::new(&entries);
// ... packfile can then be encoded within a SidebandData to send the data to a client
```
