Add IPv6 support by implementing name resolution with the protocol agnostic getaddrinfo(3) API. The old gethostbyname(3) code is still available when git is compiled with NO_IPV6. Signed-off-by: Elia Pinto <gitter.spiros@xxxxxxxxx> Helped-by: Jeff King <peff@xxxxxxxx> Helped-by: Eric Sunshine <sunshine@xxxxxxxxxxxxxx> --- This is the third version of the patch ($gmane/280488) Changes from previous: - Simplified the implementation, adding the new function canonical_name (Jeff King) ($gmane/281479).
