I would suggest using 'commitgraph.readChangedPaths' as I was planning on
implementing the same config in [1] but never got around to it.

From an end-user perspective, not server admin, 'graph' is very much
correlated to 'git log --graph'.

Using 'commitgraph' instead of core could also help us enabling more config
down the line that equate to the current options in 'git commit-graph write'.

I.e. something like 'commitgraph.writeSplit' might be desirable to tune the
behavior of 'gc.writeCommitGraph' to use '--split=replace' strategy.

@Taylor: Thanks a lot for implementing this.

Could you elaborate a bit more on the 'two-phase roll-out' mentioned here?

I was looking for a way to verify whether a commit-graph chain has been
written with Bloom filter (and force it to rewrite if not) but there seems
to be no straightforward way?

Do we need to implement a flag in 'git commit-graph verify' to check
for Bloom filter existence?
