Is it foreseen the server to *decide* with partial objects to serve And the cloning-client still to work ok? My case in mind is storing confidential files in Git (server) that I want to publicize them to partial-cloning clients, for non-repudiation, by sending out trees and commits alone (or any non-sensitive blobs). A possible UI would be to rely on a `.gitattributes` to specify which objects are to be upheld. Apologies if I'm intruding with an unrelated feature requests. Kostis
