<pull.1263.git.1655291320433.gitgitgadget@gmail.com>
From: Kyle Zhao <kylezhao@tencent.com>
This allows you to disabled bitmaps for "git push". Default is false.

Bitmaps are designed to speed up the "counting objects" phase of subsequent packs created for clones and fetches. But in some cases, turning bitmaps on does horrible things for "push" performance[1].
