Sorry for the delay. I had your previous diff applied and was
playing around with the two "known breakages".

The diff below _does_ fail on t0410-partial-clone.sh, but it's
because you do change the behavior. Here is my diff hunk for that
test:

The "special case wortreeConfig" of my submission was maybe based
on an incorrect assumption that this is the only place where Git
itself set an extension.* config without _also_ updating the
core.repositoryFormatVersion config.

The error I made in my v1 is to warn on ALL extensions, not just
the ones that Git knows about. This new approach is a good middle
ground between my v1 and v2.

Of course, the _other_ option is to revert xl/upgrade-repo-format
from v2.28.0 and take our time resolving this issue during the
2.29 cycle. I'm not sure how disruptive that action would be.

I appreciate you spending so much time on this! It's a tough
time to be noticing such a complicated situation that is not
easily testable from a single Git version, but across versions.

Your previous diff had this comment, which I thought to be
helpful: 

+		/*
+		 * Extensions are added by more "} else if (...) {"
+		 * lines here, but do NOT mark them as allowed in v0
+		 * by copy-pasting without thinking.
