When transmitting and receiving POSTs for protocol v0 and v1,
remote-curl uses post_rpc() (and associated functions), but when doing
the same for protocol v2, it uses a separate set of functions
(proxy_rpc() and others). Besides duplication of code, this has caused
at least one bug: the auth retry mechanism that was implemented in v0/v1
was not implemented in v2.
To fix this issue and avoid it in the future, make remote-curl also use
post_rpc() when handling protocol v2. Because line lengths are written
to the HTTP request in protocol v2 (unlike in protocol v0/v1), this
necessitates changes in post_rpc() and some of the functions it uses;
perform these changes too.
A test has been included to ensure that the code for both the unchunked
and chunked variants of the HTTP request is exercised.
Note: stateless_connect() has been updated to use the lower-level packet
reading functions instead of struct packet_reader. The low-level control
is necessary here because we cannot change the destination buffer of
struct packet_reader while it is being used; struct packet_buffer has a
peeking mechanism which relies on the destination buffer being present
in between a peek and a read.

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).
Issues which are security relevant should be disclosed privately to
the Git Security mailing list git-security@googlegroups.com.
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.
The name "git" was given by Linus Torvalds when he wrote the very
first version. He described the tool as "the stupid content tracker"
and the name as (depending on your mood):
random three-letter combination that is pronounceable, and not
actually used by any common UNIX command. The fact that it is a
mispronunciation of "get" may or may not be relevant.
stupid. contemptible and despicable. simple. Take your pick from the
dictionary of slang.
"global information tracker": you're in a good mood, and it actually
works for you. Angels sing, and a light suddenly fills the room.
"goddamn idiotic truckload of sh*t": when it breaks
