Re: [PATCH] Transitively read alternatives

When adding an alternate object store then add entries from its

Relative entries are only allowed in the current repository.
Loops and duplicate alternates through multiple repositories are ignored.
Just to be sure that nothing breaks it is not allow to build deep
nesting levels using info/alternates.

+     if (depth > 5) {
+             error("%s: ignoring alternate object stores, nesting too deep.",
+                             relative_base);

Please, no magic numbers. Use preprocesor "constants" for that.
