[PATCH 0/2] Document two partial clone bugs, fix one

While playing with partial clone, I discovered a few bugs and document them with tests in patch 1. One seems to be a server-side bug that happens in a somewhat rare situation, but not terribly unlikely. The other is a client-side bug that leads to quadratic amounts of data transfer; I fix this bug in patch 2.

Thanks, -Stolee
