Yes.

Duh. I did all my testing with "time git clone ..", so I had the extra \n 
added by the fact that "time" itself will do it.

Side comment: the pack preparation stage seems to take about 90s for the 
kernel. Of course, that will keep growing with history, but so will 
probably the pack-size, so percentage-wise, the 90% / 10% thing is likely 
to hold for DSL (yes, DSL gets faster too, but so do CPU ;).

That 90s is unquestionably irritating, though, so we do want to either 
cache them, or add similar "I'm working on it" output to that phase too.
