When the config key `extensions.preciousObjects` is set to `true`,
objects in the repository MUST NOT be deleted (e.g., by `git-prune` or
`git repack -d`).
`partialclone`
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
When the config key `extensions.partialclone` is set, it indicates
that the repo was created with a partial clone (or later performed
a partial fetch) and that the remote may have omitted sending
certain unwanted objects. Such a remote is called a "promisor remote"
and it promises that all such omitted objects can be fetched from it
in the future.
The value of this key is the name of the promisor remote.
