The "subset" assumption does not necessarily hold, does it? The receiver may have rewound its tips and pruned since then.

The receiver may have no commit on that history, including the shallow-bottom. -- To unsubscribe from this list: send the line "unsubscribe git" in the body of a message to majord...@vger.kernel.org More majordomo info at http://vger.kernel.org/majordomo-info.html
