The user can use `BAZEL_RULES_GIT_LOG_TAGS=fetch:W` to see the warnings.

Must be the basename of the path for the label to work.

`git cat-file -e` can return truthy even after a failed fetch.

We do not need to perform the check. If the fetch failed we need
to move towards a fallback fetch.

Need to find a suitable test project.

Allows recursive checkout.

Uses Bazel providers/rules to represent the nested
submodules as a Bazel dependency set.

Need to add the functionality to checkout the submodules.

Brings:

* `bazel-git cat-file -e <path>`
* `bazel-git show <commit>:<path>`
* `bazel-git ls-tree <commit> <path>`

List `refs/heads/{main,master,trunk}` to guess the reference.
