Thanks. The above description covers the basics but I think it is out
of order. Maybe it would make sense to say:
. first, that Windows lacks fork() and has facilities to redirect
stdin, stdout, and stderr and to inherit others in a child process
but nothing more (by the way, does anyone on list know if this is
true?)
. second, that this patch should help to work around that by allowing
the caller to tell what file descriptor number the reading end of
the "feature cat-blob" pipe inherited
. third, that being able to specify the fd number is more convenient
anyway
. lastly, that the option is plumbed into both test-svn-fe and
contrib's svn-fe tool, and what usage looks like
That way, the motivation comes first.
It is also possible to motivate it by that third point instead
(hard-coded fds as part of a command's interface do not scale and are
just weird), so I'd be tempted to leave out the Windows stuff I am
uncertain about if I were writing it. :)

Like in the last patch, it is tempting to push this default to the
library so others can conveniently use "-1".

Nit: more usual to use a verb phrase.

If try_dump_ext from the previous patch gets removed, it would ripple
through here, too. Demonstration of one possible approach below.

Is this dump copy/pasted from another test? Would it be possible to
simplify or share the dumpfile?
Some but not all of the suggestions above implemented below (this is
just an example; if something looks crazy, please feel free to drop or
fix it, of course).
Sorry to take so long to look this over. In broad strokes your
patches carry out very good changes.

From: Dmitry Ivankov <divanorama@xxxxxxxxx>
svn-fe needs to read fast-import's responses to "ls" and "cat-blob".
These come through a file descriptor number 3.
Sometimes it is easier to setup variable fd than a fixed one. It is
the case with pipe() call and even more fd=3 can be already taken.
On Windows file descriptors are not by default inherited by a child
process, nor there is an option to setup descriptors other than
standard stdin, stdout, stderr at a process creation time.
Add an option for this file descriptor number in vcs-svn/ and svn-fe,
add a simple test for it.
To be used like following:
$ svn-fe --read-blob-fd=7 ... 7<somewhere
[jn: various style tweaks]
