With '--split', the commit-graph machinery writes new commits in another
incremental commit-graph which is part of the existing chain, and
optionally decides to condense the chain into a single commit-graph.
This is done to ensure that the aysmptotic behavior of looking up a
commit in an incremental chain is dominated by the number of
incrementals in that chain. It can be controlled by the '--max-commits'
and '--size-multiple' options.
On occasion, callers may want to ensure that 'git commit-graph write
--split' always writes an incremental, and never spends effort
condensing the incremental chain [1]. Previously, this was possible by
passing '--size-multiple=0', but this no longer the case following
63020f175f (commit-graph: prefer default size_mult when given zero,
2020-01-02).
Reintroduce a less-magical variant of the above with a new pair of
arguments to '--split': '--split=no-merge' and '--split=merge-all'. When
'--split=no-merge' is given, the commit-graph machinery will never
condense an existing chain and will always write a new incremental.
Conversely, if '--split=merge-all' is given, any invocation including it
will always condense a chain if one exists. If '--split' is given with
no arguments, it behaves as before and defers to '--size-multiple', and
so on.
[1]: This might occur when, for example, a server administrator running
some program after each push may want to ensure that each job runs
proportional in time to the size of the push, and does not "jump" when
the commit-graph machinery decides to trigger a merge.
