So you can run:
bzr dump-btree --raw .bzr/repository/pack-names

And it will tell you which pack files it is actually referencing, versus
which ones are just sitting around from the restore.

You can delete things in .bzr/repository/packs/* and
.bzr/repository/indices/* that are not mentioned in pack-names.
