[PATCH v2 21/27] upload-pack: support define shallow boundary by excluding revisions

["Nguyễn Thái Ngọc Duy" <pclouds@gmail.com>]

This should allow the user to say "create a shallow clone of this branch
after version <some-tag>".

Short refs are accepted and expanded at the server side with expand_ref()
because we cannot expand (unknown) refs from the client side.

Like deepen-since, deepen-not cannot be used with deepen. But deepen-not
can be mixed with deepen-since. The result is exactly how you do the
command "git rev-list --since=... --not ref".

+deepen-not
+----------
+
+This capability adds "deepen-not" command to fetch-pack/upload-pack
+protocol so the client can request shallow clones that are cut at a
+specific revision, instead of depth. Internally it's equivalent of
+doing "rev-list --not <rev>" on the server side. "deepen-not"
+cannot be used with "deepen", but can be used with "deepen-since".
