This function is like setup_alternate_shallow() except that it does
not lock $GIT_DIR/shallow. It is supposed to be used when a program
generates temporary shallow for use by another program, then throw
the shallow file away.

for_each_commit_graft() goes through all graft points, and shallow
boundaries are just one special kind of grafting.
If $GIT_DIR/shallow and $GIT_DIR/info/grafts are both present,
write_shallow_commits() may catch both sets, accidentally turning
some graft points to shallow boundaries. Don't do that.

Commit 682c7d2 (upload-pack: fix off-by-one depth calculation in shallow
clone) introduced a new check in get_shallow_commits to decide when to
stop traversing the history and mark the current commit as a shallow
root.
With this new check in place, the old check can no longer be true, since
the first check always fires first. This commit removes that check,
making the code a bit more simple again.

index-pack --strict looks up and follows parent commits. If shallow
information is not ready by the time index-pack is run, index-pack may
be led to non-existent objects. Make fetch-pack save shallow file to
disk before invoking index-pack.
git learns new global option --shallow-file to pass on the alternate
shallow file path. Undocumented (and not even support --shallow-file=
syntax) because it's unlikely to be used again elsewhere.

get_shallow_commits() is used to determine the cut points at a given
depth (i.e. the number of commits in a chain that the user likes to
get). However we count current depth up to the commit "commit" but we
do the cutting at its parents (i.e. current depth + 1). This makes
upload-pack always return one commit more than requested. This patch
fixes it.

This uses "git-apply --whitespace=strip" to fix whitespace errors that have
crept in to our source files over time. There are a few files that need
to have trailing whitespaces (most notably, test vectors). The results
still passes the test, and build result in Documentation/ area is unchanged.

Tags should be considered when truncating the
commit list. The patch below fixes it, and fetches the right number of
commits for each tag. However the correct fix is probably to not fetch
historical tags at all.

Now, by saying "git fetch -depth <n> <repo>" you can deepen
a shallow repository.

A shallow commit is a commit which has parents, which in turn are
"grafted away", i.e. the commit appears as if it were a root.
Since these shallow commits should not be edited by the user, but
only by core git, they are recorded in the file $GIT_DIR/shallow.
A repository containing shallow commits is called shallow.
The advantage of a shallow repository is that even if the upstream
contains lots of history, your local (shallow) repository needs not
occupy much disk space.
The disadvantage is that you might miss a merge base when pulling
some remote branch.
