In C Git, when a client fetches with "git fetch --shallow-since=<date>
origin <ref>", and all commits reachable from <ref> are older than
<date>, the server dies with a message "no commits selected for shallow
requests". That is, (1) the --shallow-since filter applies to the commit
pointed to by the ref itself, and (2) there is a check that at least one
commit is not filtered out. (The pack-protocol.txt documentation does
not describe this, but the C implementation does this.)
The implementation in commit 1bb430dc21 ("UploadPack: support
deepen-since in protocol v2", 2018-09-27) does neither (1) nor (2), so
do both of these.
