Here, you are creating a distinction between an "empty" filter and
a "too large" filter at a place that I don't think is important.

For instance, this code will be triggered by "git log -- <path>"
but you only care about the filter being too large when writing the
commit-graph. I think this check for a "too large" filter should
instead be inside get_or_compute_bloom_filter(). I include a patch
below that applies on top of tb/bloom-improvements that gets to
my point (and how minor the issue might be).

Thanks,

Subject: [PATCH] commit-graph: lazy-load large Bloom filter bitmap

The bloom_large bitmap in struct commit_graph is currently loaded
immediately upon first parse of the commit-graph file (when the chunk
exists). This is needed because the current implementation of
get_bloom_filter_from_graph() is special-cased to return NULL when the
filter is marked as "too large".

This has a slight drawback: before we can read a single commit out of
the commit-graph file, we need to load this entire chunk into memory.
This happens even for commands that don't need changed-path Bloom
filters, such as "git log -1".

This "too large" information is only used when writing a commit-graph
file, so we can delay the check for a large filter until after we check
compute_if_not_present in get_or_compute_bloom_filter(). Also, place
that lazy-load directly in the get_bloom_filter_large_in_graph() method,
so we ensure it is ready when needed.

This may be overkill. For a repository with one million commits, this
filter size is approximately 125 *kilobytes* of data. My local
measurements found that this took between 1 and 2 milliseconds to load
into memory. Even for repositories with 10 million commits, this
difference would not be noticeable for end-user commands.

On the other hand, these handfuls of milliseconds could add up when
running a hosting service using Git, so this extra effort is probably
worth it.
