fetch succeeded when no-done was disabled. An immediate workaround
would be disable no-done in fetch-pack.c in a shallow repo but maybe
we can do better..

3e63b21aced1 (upload-pack: Implement no-done capability, 2011-03-14)
claims that the above sequence of acks and naks is what upload-pack
wants to show.

What happens when you disable no-done extension handling on the
server end, I wonder?

Yes, I experienced the same thing. I don't think the problem is related
to the depth per se, but rather the particular pattern of ACKs that
upload-pack sends based on which commits are being selected.

Re: [BUG] shallow clones over http

The problem occurs to me also when I want to "deepen" a shallow clone of
MediaWiki via https://

 git clone --depth 1 https://gerrit.wikimedia.org/r/p/mediawiki/core.git
 git pull --depth=9

fatal: git fetch-pack: expected shallow list.

Perhaps it helps someone to find the reason.

UPDATE:

This however works

 git clone --depth=2 https://gerrit.wikimedia.org/r/p/mediawiki/core.git
 git fetch --depth=5

Unrelated nit: we now have git fetch --unshallow.

The problem occurs to me also when I want to "deepen" a shallow clone of
MediaWiki via https://

 git clone --depth 1 https://gerrit.wikimedia.org/r/p/mediawiki/core.git
 git pull --depth=9

fatal: git fetch-pack: expected shallow list.

Perhaps it helps someone to find the reason.
