In some cases, it could be that the user is having a problem with an object which isn't present in their normal object directory. We can get a hint that that might be the case by examining the list of alternates where their object may be stored instead. Since paths to alternates may be sensitive, we'll instead count how many alternates have been specified and note how many of them exist or are broken. While object-cache.h describes a function "foreach_alt_odb()", this function does not provide information on broken alternates, which are skipped over in "link_alt_odb_entry()". Since the goal is to identify missing alternates, we can gather the contents of .git/objects/info/alternates manually.
