Oy.  That's too dense enumeration but I suspect are all "what the
patch does" that can be read from the diff.  The first sentence
gives "why", which is excellent.

You'd need to check in forbid_bloom_filters() that none of the
pathspec items have magic (other than literal), not just the first
one, no?

Totally outside the topic, but I wonder if we can further optimize
by adding an early rejection using .nowildcard_len?  Instead of
allowing a wildcarded "dir/*" pathspec element from disabling the
Bloom filter altogether, we could say "dir/ is not possibly altered,
so there may be dir/A, dir/B, etc., in the directory, nothing that
would match dir/* wildcard would have been modified", couldn't we?

This last check only looks at the first item.  It used to be OK
because we didn't look at a pathspec with more than one element, but
now shouldn't we care?

Thanks.
