Read #139079 Pick up a Lab task

The members concern the update command's channel resolution on partial clones with git older than 2.44, where a merge-base/ancestry probe may lazy-fetch history and time out. They include a proposed change to skip that probe and a related change about stable-channel refusal when git is slow; the outcome of these is not stated here.
