Jonathan Nieder 8e349780ec connect: move no_fork fallback to git_tcp_connect
git_connect has the structure

	struct child_process *conn = &no_fork;

	...
	switch (protocol) {
	case PROTO_GIT:
		if (git_use_proxy(hostandport))
			conn = git_proxy_connect(fd, hostandport);
		else
			git_tcp_connect(fd, hostandport, flags);
		...
		break;
	case PROTO_SSH:
		conn = xmalloc(sizeof(*conn));
		child_process_init(conn);
		argv_array_push(&conn->args, ssh);
		...
		break;
	...
	return conn;

In all cases except the git_tcp_connect case, conn is explicitly
assigned a value. Make the code clearer by explicitly assigning
'conn = &no_fork' in the tcp case and eliminating the default so the
compiler can ensure conn is always correctly assigned.

Git - fast, scalable, distributed revision control system

Git is a fast, scalable, distributed revision control system with an unusually rich command set that provides both high-level operations and full access to internals.

Git is an Open Source project covered by the GNU General Public License version 2 (some parts of it are under different licenses, compatible with the GPLv2). It was originally written by Linus Torvalds with help of a group of hackers around the net.

Please read the file INSTALL for installation instructions.

Many Git online resources are accessible from https://git-scm.com/ including full documentation and Git related tools.

See Documentation/gittutorial.txt to get started, then see Documentation/giteveryday.txt for a useful minimum set of commands, and Documentation/git-.txt for documentation of each command. If git has been correctly installed, then the tutorial can also be read with man gittutorial or git help tutorial, and the documentation of each command with man git-<commandname> or git help <commandname>.

CVS users may also want to read Documentation/gitcvs-migration.txt (man gitcvs-migration or git help cvs-migration if git is installed).

The user discussion and development of Git take place on the Git mailing list -- everyone is welcome to post bug reports, feature requests, comments and patches to git@vger.kernel.org (read Documentation/SubmittingPatches for instructions on patch submission). To subscribe to the list, send an email with just "subscribe git" in the body to majordomo@vger.kernel.org. The mailing list archives are available at https://public-inbox.org/git/, http://marc.info/?l=git and other archival sites.

The maintainer frequently sends the "What's cooking" reports that list the current status of various development topics to the mailing list. The discussion following them give a good reference for project status, development direction and remaining tasks.
