Thanks Junio, Jeff, Jonathan for discussion and feedback!
I went over the emails again and we seem to agree that the initial design (in v3)
was sane and the error messages and reporting for corner cases were to be
dismissed as "it happens as often as 'BUG:' messages appear, so let's not care
too deeply now".
Thanks,
Stefan

Allow a user to pass information along a push to the pre/post-receive hook

Jeff writes on v1:

This allows to transmit arbitrary information as the backends of $VENDOR
may have different options available related to the direct act of pushing.
Thanks,
Stefan
Cover letter v1:
================
Allow a user to pass information along a push to the pre/post-receive hook
on the remote.
When using a remote that is more than just a plain Git host (e.g. Gerrit,
Git{hub/lab}, etc) this may become more obvious: The (server backend specific)
push options can instruct the server to:
* open a pull request
* send out emails asking for review
* (un)trigger continuous integration
* set priority for continuous integration (i.e. bots pushing may ask to be
treated with lower priority compared to humans)
* ...
Most of these actions can be done on the client side as well,
but in these remote-centric workflows it is easier to do that on the remote,
which is why we need to transport the information there.
More concrete examples:
* When you want a change in Gerrit to be submitted to refs/heads/master, you
push instead to a magic branch refs/for/master and Gerrit will create a change
for you (similar to a pull request). Instead we could imagine that you push
to a magical refs/heads/master with a push option "create-change".
* When pushing to Gerrit you can already attach some of this information by
adding a '%' followed by the parameter to the ref, i.e. when interacting with
Gerrit it is possible to do things like[1]:
git push origin HEAD:refs/for/master%draft%topic=example%cc=jon.doe@xxxxxxxxxxx
This is not appealing to our users as it looks like hacks upon hacks to make
it work. It would read better if it was spelled as:
git push origin HEAD:refs/for/master \
--push-option draft \
--push-option topic=example \
--push-option cc=jon.doe@xxxxxxxxxxx
(with a short form that is even easier to type,
but this is is more intuitive already)
This is a patch series to Git core, which is developed at the same time
as a change is proposed to JGit by Dan Wang, see [2].
This code is also available at [3].
Thanks,
Stefan
