Ramkumar Ramachandra	272a36b67b	Fixup: Second argument may be any arbitrary string This is intended to be a fixup for commit ad466d1 in pu. As Jonathan Neider pointed out, the second argument may be any arbitrary string, and need not conform to any URL-like shape.

Ramkumar Ramachandra	00b84e9dbf	Documentation/remote-helpers: Rewrite description Rewrite the description section to describe what exactly remote helpers are and the need for them. Also mention the curl family of remote helpers as an example.

Ilari Liusvaara	28ed5b3524	Support mandatory capabilities Add support for marking capability as mandatory for hosting git version to understand. This is useful for helpers which require various types of assistance from main git binary.

Daniel Barkalow	f8ec916731	Allow helpers to report in "list" command that the ref is unchanged Helpers may use a line like "? name unchanged" to specify that there is nothing new at that name, without any git-specific code to determine the correct response.

Daniel Barkalow	72ff894308	Allow helper to map private ref names into normal names This allows a helper to say that, when it handles "import refs/heads/topic", the script it outputs will actually write to refs/svn/origin/branches/topic; therefore, transport-helper should read it from the latter location after git-fast-import completes.

Daniel Barkalow	e65e91ed4a	Add support for "import" helper command This command, supported if the "import" capability is advertized, allows a helper to support fetching by outputting a git-fast-import stream. If both "fetch" and "import" are advertized, git itself will use "fetch" (although other users may use "import" in this case).

Shawn O. Pearce	ae4efe1957	Move WebDAV HTTP push under remote-curl The remote helper interface now supports the push capability, which can be used to ask the implementation to push one or more specs to the remote repository. For remote-curl we implement this by calling the existing WebDAV based git-http-push executable. Internally the helper interface uses the push_refs transport hook so that the complexity of the refspec parsing and matching can be reused between remote implementations. When possible however the helper protocol uses source ref name rather than the source SHA-1, thereby allowing the helper to access this name if it is useful. >From Clemens Buchacher <drizzd@aon.at>: update http tests according to remote-curl capabilities o Pushing packed refs is now fixed. o The transport helper fails if refs are already up-to-date. Add a test for that. o The transport helper will notice if refs are already up-to-date. We therefore need to update server info in the unpacked-refs test. o The transport helper will purge deleted branches automatically. o Use a variable ($ORIG_HEAD) instead of full SHA-1 name.

Shawn O. Pearce	ef08ef9ea0	remote-helpers: Support custom transport options Some transports, like the native pack transport implemented by fetch-pack, support useful features like depth or include tags. These should be exposed if the underlying helper knows how to use them. Signed-off-by: Shawn O.

Shawn O. Pearce	292ce46b60	remote-helpers: Fetch more than one ref in a batch Some network protocols (e.g. native git://) are able to fetch more than one ref at a time and reduce the overall transfer cost by combining the requests into a single exchange. Instead of feeding each fetch request one at a time to the helper, feed all of them at once so the helper can decide whether or not it should batch them. Signed-off-by: Shawn O.

Daniel Barkalow	6eb996b570	Add support for external programs for handling native fetches transport_get() can call transport_native_helper_init() to have list and fetch-ref operations handled by running a separate program as: git remote-<something> <remote> [<url>] This program then accepts, on its stdin, "list" and "fetch <hex> <name>" commands; the former prints out a list of available refs and either their hashes or what they are symrefs to, while the latter fetches them into the local object database and prints a newline when done.
