Re: [PATCH v2] clone: respect configured fetch respecs during initial fetch

From: Junio C Hamano <hidden>
Date: 2016-06-15 23:09:08

SZEDER Gábor [off-list ref] writes:
Conceptually 'git clone' should behave as if the following commands
were run:

  git init
  git config ... # set default configuration and origin remote
  git fetch
  git checkout   # unless '--bare' is given

However, that initial 'git fetch' behaves differently from any
subsequent fetches, because it takes only the default fetch refspec
into account and ignores all other fetch refspecs that might have
been explicitly specified on the command line (e.g. 'git -c
remote.origin.fetch=<refspec> clone' or 'git clone -c ...').
Is it really 'git fetch' behaves differently?

What is missing in the above description is your expected behaviour
of "git -c var=val clone", and without it we cannot tell if your
expectation is sane to begin with.

Is the expectation like this?

    git init
    git config ... # set default configuration and origin remote
    git config var val # update with what "-c var=val" told us
    git fetch
    git checkout   # unless '--bare' is given

or is it something else?

Is "-c var=val" adding to the config variables set by default, or is
it replacing them?  Does the choice depend on the nature of
individual variables, and if so what is the criteria?

Are all "-c var=val" update the configuration of the resulting
repository?  Or are certain "var"s treated as special and placed in
the config but not other "var"s?  If the latter, what makes these
certain "var"s special?

These design decisions need to be explained so that they will serve
to guide people to decide what other variables to propagate and how
when they have to add new configuration variables in the future.
Otherwise we'd end up with an inconsistent mess.

Check whether there are any fetch refspecs configured for the origin
remote and take all of them into account during the initial fetch as
well.

Changes since previous (RFC) version:
 - new commit message
 - additional configured fetch refspecs are taken into account with
   '--single-branch' as well
