[PATCH 17/25] fetch: fetch bundles before fetching original data

From
Derrick Stolee via GitGitGadget <gitgitgadget@gmail.com>
Date
Feb 23, 2022, 18:30 UTC
Message-ID
<42d351f4aae9532d2787e72ae4be2e08fe614f44.1645641063.git.gitgitgadget@gmail.com>
In-Reply-To
<pull.1160.git.1645641063.gitgitgadget@gmail.com>
From: Derrick Stolee <derrickstolee@github.com>

If a user cloned using a bundle URI, then they might want to re-use it to download new bundles during 'git fetch' before fetching the remaining objects from the origin server. Use the 'fetch.bundleURI' config as the indicator for whether this extra step should happen.

Do not fetch bundles if --dry-run is specified.
RFC-TODO: add tests.
RFC-TODO: update Documentation/git-fetch.txt
RFC-TODO: update Documentation/config/
