We have noticed that the connectivity check becomes much faster when advertising both the heads and tags of an alternate, as opposed to just the heads. But, in our initial experiments, we noticed that it took *far* longer to compute the answer to: $ git for-each-ref refs/heads refs/tags then simply $ git for-each-ref refs/heads We found that this dates back to cfe004a5a9 (ref-filter: limit traversal to prefix, 2017-05-22), which drops the user-provided patterns entirely when more than one pattern is passed to the ref filter. To remedy this, we implemented an algorithm which computes the longest pattern prefixes over the disjoint subsets of patterns provided to the ref filter. This produces the most-specific queries (i.e., the ones that we hope to return the fewest extra results) without covering the same ref more than once. The details of the algorithm are written up in detail in the patch. This doesn't have quite the impressive results on repositories the size of the kernel, but yields a drastic improvement on our fork network repositories. Some synthetic results are included in the patch as well. Thanks in advance for your review.
