Git clients may ask the server for a partial set of objects, where the
set of objects being requested is refined by one or more object filters.
Server administrators can configure 'git upload-pack' to allow or ban
these filters by setting the 'uploadpack.allowFilter' variable to
'true' or 'false', respectively.
However, administrators using bitmaps may wish to allow certain kinds of
object filters, but ban others. Specifically, they may wish to allow
object filters that can be optimized by the use of bitmaps, while
rejecting other object filters which aren't and represent a perceived
performance degradation (as well as an increased load factor on the
server).
Allow configuring 'git upload-pack' to support object filters on a
case-by-case basis by introducing a new configuration variable and
section:
- 'uploadpack.filter.allow'
- 'uploadpack.filter.<kind>.allow'
where '<kind>' may be one of 'blob:none', 'blob:limit', 'tree:depth',
and so on. The additional '.' between 'filter' and '<kind>' is part of
the sub-section.
Setting the second configuration variable for any valid value of
'<kind>' explicitly allows or disallows restricting that kind of object
filter.
If a client requests the object filter <kind> and the respective
configuration value is not set, 'git upload-pack' will default to the
value of 'uploadpack.filter.allow', which itself defaults to 'true' to
maintain backwards compatibility. Note that this differs from
'uploadpack.allowfilter', which controls whether or not the 'filter'
capability is advertised.
NB: this introduces an unfortunate possibility that attempt to write the
ERR sideband will cause a SIGPIPE. This can be prevented by some of
SZEDZER's previous work, but it is silenced in 't' for now.
