In case some objects are missing from a server, it might still be
useful to be able to fetch or clone from it if the client already has
the missing objects or can get them in some way.
For example, in case both the server and the client are using a
separate promisor remote that contain some objects, it can be better
if the server doesn't try to send such objects back to the client, but
instead let the client get those objects separately from the promisor
remote. (The client needs to have the separate promisor remote
configured, for that to work.)
Another example could be a server where some objects have been
corrupted or deleted. It could still be useful for clients who could
get those objects from another source, like perhaps a different
client, to be able to fetch or clone from the server.
To configure what a server should do if there are such missing
objects, let's teach `git upload-pack` a new
`uploadpack.missingAction` configuration variable.
This new missing-action works in a similar way as what `git rev-list`
and `git pack-objects` already support with their
`--missing=<missing-action>` command line options. In fact when
`uploadpack.missingAction` is set to something different than "error",
`git upload-pack` will just pass the corresponding
`--missing=<missing-action>` to `git pack-objects`.
So this new missing-action has the same limitations as
`git pack-objects --missing=<missing-action>`. Especially when not
using promisor remotes, 'allow-any' works only for blobs.
Another limitation comes from `git upload-pack` itself which requires
setting `GIT_NO_LAZY_FETCH` to 0 since 7b70e9efb1 (upload-pack:
disable lazy-fetching by default, 2024-04-16) for lazy fetching from
a promisor remote to work on the server side.
