Actually, it turns out that I may be able to avoid that
step ... leave the old stuff in the repository, from which
it will get garbage collected in a few weeks.  There would
be an advantage for anyone who has a private branch; it'll
be easier to bring it up to date.  The disadvantage will be
that until that GC happens, HTTP clones will still need to
incur the costs of larger-than-desirable fetches.

I'm not sure yet if I'll go that route.  It'd be easier on
current clients, if I understand things right, which is why
I sort of like that notion:  just "git pull", no need to
make new clones.
