Re: [PATCH] send-pack: Filter unknown commits from alternates of the remote

fetch from multiple repos when alternates are involved?

This part is a slightly different issue than the rest of your message, so
I'll answer separately.

Yes, in the example, if Bob fetched from Alice before he pushed, his push
will succeed with the 1.6.1 send-pack.

But that is a workaround, and it is not a fix.
