Changes in v2: * Added documentation for fetch * changes #defines for state variables to be enums * couple code changes to pkt-line functions and documentation * Added unit tests for the git-serve binary as well as for ls-refs Areas for improvement * Push isn't implemented, right now this is ok because if v2 is requested the server can just default to v0. Before this can be merged we may want to change how the client request a new protocol, and not allow for sending "version=2" when pushing even though the user has it configured. Or maybe its fine to just have an older client who doesn't understand how to push (and request v2) to die if the server tries to speak v2 at it. Fixing this essentially would just require piping through a bit more information to the function which ultimately runs connect (for both builtins and remote-curl) * I want to make sure that the docs are well written before this gets merged so I'm hoping that someone can do a through review on the docs themselves to make sure they are clear. * Right now there is a capability 'stateless-rpc' which essentially makes sure that a server command completes after a single round (this is to make sure http works cleanly). After talking with some folks it may make more sense to just have v2 be stateless in nature so that all commands terminate after a single round trip. This makes things a bit easier if a server wants to have ssh just be a proxy for http. One potential thing would be to flip this so that by default the protocol is stateless and if a server/command has a state-full mode that can be implemented as a capability at a later point. Thoughts? * Shallow repositories and shallow clones aren't supported yet. I'm working on it and it can be either added to v2 by default if people think it needs to be in there from the start, or we can add it as a capability at a later point.
