That really doesn't work very well. I push to that tree often several
times a day, and you'd have to re-do the cache each time.
So it would be much better if git-pack-objects would just always cache its
output in .git/pack-cache - along with some logic to just get rid of old
ones regularly.
Since git-pack-objects has to generate the pack _anyway_, it might as well
save it away when it does - so that if you have lots of people doing
clones or pulling, you'd only need to run it once for a particular set of
objects, and you'd not have to do any extra (or unnecessary) maintenance.
