1. Restore the shallow clone behavior of the git walkers …

   Resolves trustification#775
   
   I finally figured out how to update the shallow clone, setting the
   fetch depth to `i32::MAX` to signal infinite fetch depth, per
   https://git-scm.com/docs/shallow
   
   I had wrongly assumed depth=0 signaled infinite depth -- it does for
   an initial clone, but not an update of a shallow one.
   
   Essentially, this improves the "day 0" experience -- the first walk of
   the shallow clone takes no more than a few minutes. But the annoying
   ~30 minute fetch is deferred to the first update of the shallow clone,
   effectively turning it into a deep clone, after which subsequent
   fetches are fast.
   
   I think that's a workable compromise until libgit2's perf issue is
   addressed.
