+/**
+ * A revindex allows converting efficiently between three properties
+ * of an object within a pack:
+ *
+ * - index position: the numeric position within the list of sorted object ids
+ * found in the .idx file
+ *
+ * - pack position: the numeric position within the list of objects in their
+ * order within the actual .pack file (i.e., 0 is the first object in the
+ * .pack, 1 is the second, and so on)
+ *
+ * - offset: the byte offset within the .pack file at which the object contents
+ * can be found
+ *
+ * The revindex can also be used with a multi-pack index (MIDX). In this
+ * setting:
+ *
+ * - index position refers to an object's numeric position within the MIDX
+ *
+ * - pack position refers to an object's position within a non-existent pack
+ * described by the MIDX. The pack structure is described in
+ * Documentation/technical/pack-format.txt.
+ *
+ * It is effectively a concatanation of all packs in the MIDX (ordered by
+ * their numeric ID within the MIDX) in their original order within each
+ * pack), removing duplicates, and placing the preferred pack (if any)
+ * first.
