I agree that it is reasonable not to optimize the system for the
failure case---it is pointless to fail as quick as possible ;-)

Meaning "I created this repository by partially cloning, and now
I want to update it by pushing into it"? I am not sure how rare
such a use case is, so I won't be a good judge on this one.

Earlier we would have this bit on only when filter_options.choice
was non-NULL but this allows us to take the branch as long as we
are lazily populated. Makes sense.

OK. This is the "fallback" thing you mentioned in the log message.
Makes sense.
