+ . rev-list: refactor --missing=<missing-action>
+
+ Allow a server S that is a lazy clone of another repository X to
+ respond to a request by C that is a lazy clone of S in a way that
+ it omits objects it itself does not have (and has to be lazily
+ fetched from X).
+
+ I would say this is a terribly irresponsive design, especially
+ there is no negociation for S to learn if the objects it is going
+ to omit is obtainable by C from elsewhere.

+ Discarded.
