which usually are Clone too as they are passed by immutable reference (which is Clone + Copy).

Maintenance release without any new features.
These are created to account for breaking changes within the dependency graph of
gitoxide crates. Due to some blunders in the past the version on crates.io
could not be installed anymore.
This was eventually fixed with new minor releases across the ecosystem.
Finally, yet another breaking change due to the introduction of the gix-hash
crate to break a dependency cycle between gix-object and gix-features caused
yet another maintenance release.

That way it's easier to reuse shallow-handling code from plumbing crates.
Note that this is a breaking change as gix-protocol now uses the gix-shallow::Update
type, which doesn't implement a formerly public from_line() method anymore.
Now it is available as fetch::response::shallow_update_from_line().
