Initializing `po_args`'s `filter_options` makes sense to me, but do we
ever use the cruft_po_args ones? From looking at this patch, I don't
think we do.

Initializing them and then calling list_objects_filter_release() on it
isn't wrong, but I can't tell whether initializing these is necessary
or not in the first place.

I can't remember off-hand why, but I am pretty sure that we usually
write "test_must_fail env ..." before the command-line arguments instead
of setting the environment variable outside of the test_must_fail call.

I *think* that this is the same issue as the single-shot environment
variable assignment before function call thing that we see in some
shells.

Regardless, I wonder if we should be catching this --filter +
--write-bitmap-index thing earlier. The error message I get when
running this is:

    warning: Failed to write bitmap index. Packfile doesn't have full closure (object ac3e272b72bbf89def8657766b855d0656630ed4 is missing)
    fatal: failed to write bitmap index

Which comes from deep within the pack-bitmap-write.c internals
(specifically in a failing call to `find_object_pos()`).

I don't think that's wrong per-se, but I wonder if catching the
combination earlier would allow us to carry on writing the pack even if
the caller erroneously specified that they wanted a bitmap, similar to
how we handle that combination with other options (see the comment in
builtin/pack-objects.c that starts with "'hard reasons not to use
bitmaps [...]'").

I doubt we'd see many naturally occurring instances of users running
"git repack" with both the --filter spec option and
--write-bitmap-index. But, I think that it would come up more often in
bare repositories, where writing reachability bitmaps is the default
state during repacking unless specified otherwise.

I suspect doing something like:

--- 8< ---
diff --git a/builtin/pack-objects.c b/builtin/pack-objects.c

 	if (pack_to_stdout || !rev_list_all)
--- >8 ---

would do the trick (perhaps with a warning(), and the corresponding test
modification, but I think I could go either way on the warning() since
there isn't one there currently.)

I looked through the rest of the tests, and they all looked good to me,
thanks.

Thanks,
Taylor
