OK.

So, after updating shallow file with "fetch --update-shallow" (or
failing to do so), we reset the in-core data.

OK.

And also after writing out the alternate shallow file (whether it is
empty or polulated).

Here, we reset only after we realize we cannot write the updated
shallow file.  Intended?

Likewise.
