What
Repos with large amounts of dead history in their pack files were being downgraded to a squashed snapshot or rejected as too big. The uploader now measures the bytes actually reachable from your branches and picks the bundle size tier from that.
Details
Reads count-objects -v first; if packs look far larger than the cap, runs a time-boxed rev-list --disk-usage--objects --missing=allow-any --all.
Skipped for partial clones, detected by sniffing extensions.partialclone and remote.*.promisor / partialclonefilter.
Runs on the hardened upload path; no flag to set.
Evidence
--missing=allow-any
Strings lifted out of the shipped bundle, so the claim above can be checked against them.
