Pushing to regular repositories _adds_ information (adds objects
and advances refs). Junio proposed that "git push <bundle>" do the
same, which means getting refs from bundle, and adding objects
to bundle creating new bundle, which contain all the old one has,
and all what was created since then. What information would be lost?

Johannes provided alternate solution which you can use even now,
namely how to create "incremental" bundle, which has all objects
since last bundle was created. But this does not play with the way
push works with ordinary, regular repositories.

P.S. Code speaks louder than words ;-)
