Isn't this covered by /etc/portage/repos.conf/*
Absolutely, but this requires a manual intervention from the user. And,
of course, you can totally opt-out from portage managing (syncing) the
repository, but then you have to take care of syncing yourself.
The point is that with the new portage release, portage's behavior
changes. And I would argue that portage should not, in its effort to
become more user friendly, disregard ebuild-developer friendliness.
Assuming it is achievable with a reasonable amount of additional code
complexity.
This bit me too, and making things worse, the truncate killed the git history that presumably had the answer I needed to fix it up.
=:^( Fortunately I had a bit of a clue due to preemptively following the portage changelog where I had seen a hint, so I was able to dig it up
again without the git log help that's definitely now my first instinct.
Thankfully, if anyone does accidentally gets shallowed, just executing
'git fetch --unshallow' will revert the default '--depth 1'
I really don't care for that 'git clean' patch. If that makes it in
without a way to opt-out, it will be patched out for me personally.

By "that 'git clean'" patch, do you mean [1]? Why are you speaking as
if you're talking about a 3rd party and not people that are also on
the gentoo-dev mailing list? It seems like the more productive thing
to do would be to at least offer substantive criticism about a
specific PR, maybe even in the PR itself.
While I'm at it: you used to be reachable on IRC, but you never
migrated away from Freenode. Why? It seems like every few days someone
is looking for you only to be surprised that you're not in Gentoo's
IRC community anymore.
