From: Alex Riesen <raa.l...@gmail.com>

The "--reference" option is not the only way to provide a repository to borrow
objects from.
For instance, the objects/info/alternates of the origin repository lists
object stores which the origin repository borrowed objects from. During
clone operations which bypass a git aware transport (i.e.  simply copy the
things over, like git clone --local) the file is copied into the cloned
repository.
In such a case, even if there were no reference repositories given in the
command-line, there might be still something to "dissociate" the cloned
repository from, before it is really independent.

Fixed.

Perhaps you would want a new  test somewhere that (1) prepares the

Added. t5700-clone-reference seemed like a logical place for it.

Regards,
Alex
