A little more involved. And I wanted to know what people think about this
way to tackle shallow clones.
This truly is a lot more involved, not because "lazy clone" is
hard (which it is) but because what Eric wants to have is not to
produce a shallow clone situation. The issue is about being
able to fetch an object that is not listed as one of the refs
the server side has, and it still will result in a fully
connected repository.
