The fetching of OFS_DELTA objects has been negotiated between both peers
since git version 1.4.4.  However, this was missing from the push side
where every OFS_DELTA objects were always converted to REF_DELTA objects
causing an increase in transferred data.

To fix this, both the client and the server processes have to be
modified: the former to invoke pack-objects with --delta-base-offset
when the server provides the ofs-delta capability, and the later to send
that capability when OFS_DELTA objects are allowed as already indicated
by the repack.usedeltabaseoffset config variable which is TRUE by
default since git v1.6.0.
