We might not even need to store the repository data in the cache,
but just keep an index of where revisions are stored on the local machine.
If these indexes have not been used for some time, or they became invalid
(because the target was moved), they may be safely discarded.

This type of idea might also help the implementation of automatic local
stacking, which I've seen people discuss somewhere.

this is a crazy idea, but it might just work :)
