I'm nitpicking, but I usually say "single-pack bitmap" or "multi-pack (MIDX) bitmap" when distinguishing between the two.

Odd spacing, and there should be a single space character separating "$" from "git" (like "$ git").

While I'm thinking about it: is the error message here up-to-date with the changes made by the previous patch?

This could probably be trimmed down for brevity, but I don't feel strongly about it. If you wanted to make your commit message a tad shorter, perhaps something like:

  When a user sees output like this, it's unclear which kind(s) of
  .bitmap exist, and which were read. For example, it's possible a MIDX
  bitmap exists, but was not read (e.g., because
  core.multiPackIndex=false), among many other scenarios.

The output here is quite wide, and I wonder if this whole section could be shortened. For example, scenario 2 is arguably more interesting than scenario 1 (I think readers would reasonably infer what happens in scenario 1 by reading what happens in scenario 2).

And scenario 2 could be cleaned up by just showing a few of the columns from the trace2 output. Perhaps along the lines of:

Reading the below scenarios, I think just showing this example is more than sufficient for illustrating your point.

I wonder, why don't we show these errors to the user? Should we introduce a "ret" variable and set it to (for e.g.)

    ret = error(_("failed to load bitmap header"));
or something?

I'm not sure we want to dump the whole repository configuration into trace2 output. Is there a more convenient place to log any important value(s) _after_ they have been read?

Thanks, Taylor
