[PATCH v3] receive-pack: check if client is alive before completing the push

[Date Prev][Date Next][Thread Prev][Thread Next][Date Index][Thread Index]

 



Abort the push operation (i.e. do not migrate the objects from temporary
to permanent storage) if the client has disconnected while the
pre-receive hook was running.

This reduces the risk of inconsistencies on network errors or if the
user hits ctrl-c while the pre-receive hook is running.

Send a keepalive packet (empty) on sideband 2 (the one to report
progress). If the client has exited, receive-pack will be killed via
SIGPIPE and the push will be aborted. This only works when sideband*
capabilities are advertised by the client.

v2 -> v3:
    I had missed Documentation/technical/pack-protocol.txt. Using
    sideband 2 to send the keepalive packet works.
