You spell "--thin-aggressive" as two words, "--thin" "--shallow", in this series, essentially, no? I think this is going in the right direction. The "shallow" propagated on the wire from the fetcher is the right thing to use to make this decision. I wonder if the call to is_repository_shallow() is still necessary (read: I would prefer to see it go away) where we decide between "--objects-edge" and "--objects-edge-aggressive".
