I don't know which one you are refering to.

These cases I hope to be able to treat as "coroutine":

- sideband demultiplexer in builtin-fetch-pack.c
- internal rev-list in upload-pack
- the two-way pipe handling in convert.c and builtin-upload-archive.c

There are probably more in daemon.c and imap-send.c.

BTW, the convert.c case (apply_filter) is most interesting for me, since I 
have a real-world use-case for a clean-filter.
