(merge b072a25fad jc/receive-deny-current-branch-fix later to maint).
* The logic to determine the archive type "git archive" uses did not
correctly kick in for "git archive --remote", which has been
corrected.
* "git repack" in a shallow clone did not correctly update the
shallow points in the repository, leading to a repository that
does not pass fsck.
(merge 5dcfbf564c js/shallow-and-fetch-prune later to maint).
* Some codepaths failed to form a proper URL when .gitmodules record
the URL to a submodule repository as relative to the repository of
superproject, which has been corrected.
(merge e0a862fdaf sb/submodule-url-to-absolute later to maint).
* "git fetch" over protocol v2 into a shallow repository failed to
fetch full history behind a new tip of history that was diverged
before the cut-off point of the history that was previously fetched
shallowly.
* The command line completion machinery (in contrib/) has been
updated to allow the completion script to tweak the list of options
that are reported by the parse-options machinery correctly.
(merge 276b49ff34 nd/completion-negation later to maint).
* Operations on promisor objects make sense in the context of only a
small subset of the commands that internally use the revisions
machinery, but the "--exclude-promisor-objects" option were taken
and led to nonsense results by commands like "log", to which it
didn't make much sense. This has been corrected.
