If we borrow objects from another repository, we should also pay attention to their $GIT_DIR/shallow (and even info/grafts). But current alternates code does not. Reject alternate repos that are shallow because we do not do it right. In future we alternate code may be updated to check $GIT_DIR/shallow properly so that this restriction could be lifted.
