I did some of my own investigation and have a working (i.e. passing tests) version of this patch here:

https://github.com/jonathantanmy/git/commits/pc20171103

If you want, you can use that, or incorporate the changes therein here. I'll also remark on my findings inline.

opt here is unchanged from CHECK_CONNECTED_INIT, so this change is unnecessary.

You'll also need to set TRANS_OPT_FROM_PROMISOR.

My intention in doing the "fetch: refactor calculation of remote list" patch is so that the interaction between the provided list of remotes and the specification of the filter can be handled using the following diff:

    -	if (remote)
    +	if (remote) {
    +		if (filter_options.choice &&
    +		    strcmp(remote->name, repository_format_partial_clone_remote))
    +			die(_("--blob-max-bytes can only be used with the remote configured in core.partialClone"));
     		result = fetch_one(remote, argc, argv);
    -	else
    +	} else {
    +		if (filter_options.choice)
    +			die(_("--blob-max-bytes can only be used with the remote configured in core.partialClone"));
     		result = fetch_multiple(&list);
    +	}

(Ignore the "blob-max-bytes" in the error message - that needs to be updated.)

The GitHub link I provided above has this diff, and it seems to work.
