So, what do you do if some of your users do, and some others do not, have 
the "blue-sky" branch? If you say "git bundle create new.bundle --all 
-10", your bundle will list "blue-sky" as a prerequisite.

Boom.

Some of your users -- those without "blue-sky" -- will _not_ be able 
to fetch _anything_ from the bundle. They are lacking the prerequisites.

The semantics of git-bundle used to be so clear and sensible, since they 
exactly reflected what git-pack-objects would do.

Now they are no longer?

Ciao,
Dscho
