+ (this branch uses ed/check-connected-close-err-fd-2.53.)

- restrict negotiation to a specific set of refs.
- source: <pull.2085.v6.git.1779207896.gitgitgadget@gmail.com>

- In a lazy clone, "git cherry" and "git grep" often fetch necessary
- blob objects one by one from promisor remotes. It has been corrected
- to collect necessary object names and fetch them in bulk to gain
- reasonable performance.
