rev-list: disable bitmaps when "-n" is used with listing objects
You can ask rev-list to use bitmaps to speed up an --objects traversal, which should generally give you your answers much faster. Likewise, you can ask rev-list to limit such a traversal with `-n`, in which case we'll show only a limited set of commits (and only the tree and commit objects directly reachable from those commits). But if you do both together, the results are nonsensical. We end up limiting any fallback traversal we do to _find_ the bitmaps, but the actual set of objects we output will be picked arbitrarily from the union of any bitmaps we do find, and will involve the objects of many more commits. It's possible that somebody might want this as a "show me what you can, but limit the amount of work you do" flag. But as with the prior commit clamping "--count", the results are basically non-deterministic; you'll get the values from some commits between `n` and the total number, and you can't tell which. And unlike the `--count` case, we can't easily generate the "real" value from the bitmap values (you can't just walk back `-n` commits and subtract out the reachable objects from the boundary commits; the bitmaps for `X` record its total reachability, so you don't know which objects are directly from `X` itself, which from `X^`, and so on). So let's just fallback to the non-bitmap code path in this case, so we always give a sane answer. Signed-off-by: Jeff King <peff@peff.net> Signed-off-by: Junio C Hamano <gitster@pobox.com>
