My patch deals with 'remote.<name>.refspec', i.e. 'remote->fetch'. Apparently some extra care is necessary for 'remote.<name>.tagOpt' and 'remote->fetch_tags', too. Perhaps there are more, I haven't checked again, and maybe we'll add similar config variables in the future. So I don't think that dealing with such config variables one by one in 'git clone', too, is the right long-term solution... but perhaps it's sufficient for the time being?I think your patch is a strict improvement and we don't need to hold up waiting for a perfect fix (and because of the --single-branch thing you mentioned, this may be the best we can do anyway).OK, so where does this patch stand now? It already is too late for the upcoming release, but should we merge it to 'next' once the release is made, cook it in 'next' and shoot for the next release as-is, or do we want to allow minor tweaks before it hits 'next'?I'd be OK with it as-is, but here are my nitpicks as a diff (keep the assignment of refspec_count in one place, and free fetch_patterns as soon as it is no longer used). I actually think it might be nice to pull the whole thing out into its own function, but the parameters it takes would be oddly specific.
Actually, it's not too bad, because we can pick up things like option_origin from the globals. Here it is for reference. The nice thing about it (IMHO) is that it makes the lifetimes of the helper variables much more shorter and more clear. But I'm OK with any of Gábor's original, my earlier squash, or this one. (Also, as a side note, the free(refspec) in the context at the bottom seems like it probably ought to be free_refspec() in the original and free_refspecs() after this change, but I didn't investigate).
