A doc update. * jk/smart-http-protocol-doc-fix: smart-http: document flush after "# service" line

smart-http: document flush after "# service" line

2018-03-05T19:05:19Z

The http-protocol.txt spec fails to mention that a flush packet comes in the smart server response after sending the "service" header. Technically the client code is actually ready to receive an arbitrary number of headers here, but since we haven't introduced any other headers in the past decade (and the client would just throw them away), let's not mention it in the spec. This fixes both BNF and the example. While we're fixing the latter, let's also add the missing flush after the ref list.

Correct mispellings of ".gitmodule" to ".gitmodules"

2018-02-14T19:34:34Z

There are a small number of misspellings, ".gitmodule", scattered throughout the code base, correct them ... no apparent functional changes. Signed-off-by: Robert P. J. Day Signed-off-by: Junio C Hamano

Merge branch 'jh/partial-clone'

2018-02-13T21:39:04Z

The machinery to clone & fetch, which in turn involves packing and unpacking objects, have been told how to omit certain objects using the filtering mechanism introduced by the jh/object-filtering topic, and also mark the resulting pack as a promisor pack to tolerate missing objects, taking advantage of the mechanism introduced by the jh/fsck-promisors topic. * jh/partial-clone: t5616: test bulk prefetch after partial fetch fetch: inherit filter-spec from partial clone t5616: end-to-end tests for partial clone fetch-pack: restore save_commit_buffer after use unpack-trees: batch fetching of missing blobs clone: partial clone partial-clone: define partial clone settings in config fetch: support filters fetch: refactor calculation of remote list fetch-pack: test support excluding large blobs fetch-pack: add --no-filter fetch-pack, index-pack, transport: partial clone upload-pack: add object filtering for partial clone

Merge branch 'jh/fsck-promisors'

2018-02-13T21:39:03Z

In preparation for implementing narrow/partial clone, the machinery for checking object connectivity used by gc and fsck has been taught that a missing object is OK when it is referenced by a packfile specially marked as coming from trusted repository that promises to make them available on-demand and lazily. * jh/fsck-promisors: gc: do not repack promisor packfiles rev-list: support termination at promisor objects sha1_file: support lazily fetching missing objects introduce fetch-object: fetch one promisor object index-pack: refactor writing of .keep files fsck: support promisor objects as CLI argument fsck: support referenced promisor objects fsck: support refs pointing to promisor objects fsck: introduce partialclone extension extension.partialclone: introduce partial clone extension

sha1_file: convert pretend_sha1_file to object_id

2018-01-30T18:42:35Z

Convert the declaration and definition of pretend_sha1_file to use struct object_id and adjust all usages of this function. Rename it to pretend_object_file. Signed-off-by: Patryk Obara Signed-off-by: Junio C Hamano

Docs: split out long-running subprocess handshake

2018-01-25T19:24:32Z

Separating out the implementation of the handshake when starting a long-running subprocess (for example, as is done for a clean/smudge filter) was done in commit fa64a2fdbeed ("sub-process: refactor handshake to common function", 2017-07-26), but its documentation still resides in gitattributes. Split out the documentation as well. Signed-off-by: Jonathan Tan Signed-off-by: Junio C Hamano
