Another is reject new shallow history (i.e. no additions to .git/shallow) unless the user explicitly asks so either via --depth or a new option --shallow. This does not mean that fetching from a shallow clone always fails without either of those options. The shallow clone may provide updates to an existing ref and _not_ introduce new shallow grafts and that would be successful. core.noshallow (or an opposite alternative) is probably the only way for push. -- Duy -- To unsubscribe from this list: send the line "unsubscribe git" in the body of a message to majordomo@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx More majordomo info at http://vger.kernel.org/majordomo-info.html
