Patches 4 and 7, which I have commented on previously, look good. As for patch 2, it still has a missing period in the documentation that I remarked upon in [1], but I'm not too worried about that. Having said that, Jonathan Nieder suggested [2]: > Stefan mentioned that the spec says > > * The server MUST NOT send any refs which were not requested > using 'want-ref' lines. > > Can client enforce that?

I noticed that you did use "SHOULD NOT" instead of "MUST NOT" - in this case, you should probably also follow the second part about appropriate client behavior - it's probably best to document and implement that we ignore all unwanted refs. But considering this situation, though, I think it's better to just put "MUST NOT" and have the client enforce this. One more thing - I think that the fetch part needs to be tested more. In particular, test cases similar to that of the upload-pack tests (multiple ref names, ref name + exact SHA-1), and in addition, handling of wildcards (for example, a wildcard that expands to nothing and a wildcard that expands to 2 refs).
