Having a non-zero value here doesn't really mean "2.1" or "3". But I understand
your apprehension.

I'm currently working on building the incremental file format, based on
this series. This "unused" byte will be used to say "how many base commit-graph
files does this graph have?" If non-zero, we do not currently understand
how to stitch these files together into a "combined" graph at run time,
so we should fail.

If we should never have an intermediate version of Git that doesn't
understand this byte, then this series can wait until that feature is ready.

Thanks,
