More importantly, no send-pack choked on "ok <refname>" followed by a SP (old ones just checked "ok" and nothing else, the current one NULs out the SP and lets you use the rest as a message), so such a change to receive-pack does not have to break older send-pack. - To unsubscribe from this list: send the line "unsubscribe git" in the body of a message to majordomo@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx More majordomo info at http://vger.kernel.org/majordomo-info.html
