Details are in the first patch. A note on this hang. What happens is that upload-pack sees a bogus "want" line and calls die(). The client then sits there forever, but I'm not exactly sure what it's waiting for. This series fixes the bug that caused us to erroneously call die() in upload-pack, so the hang is "fixed". But there are other reasons to call die(); it would probably be a good thing if the client side noticed the problem and aborted. -Peff -- To unsubscribe from this list: send the line "unsubscribe git" in the body of a message to majordomo@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx More majordomo info at http://vger.kernel.org/majordomo-info.html
