[PATCH v3 0/4] Clone fails on a repo with too many heads/tags

[Ivan Todoroski <grnch@gmx.net>]

The full description of the problem can be found in the first patch.


Changes since v2:

* fix a bunch of code style and documentation issues spotted by Junio
* tighten ref format checking on stdin to not allow extra whitespace
* make fetch-pack --stdin tests independent of the order of refs
* add test for duplicate refs on stdin
* drop the two ugly and redundant --stateless-rpc tests
* drop the test that tolerated extra whitespace


Changes since the original patch:

* add test cases
* add full commit messages
* fix formatting problem in --stdin doc
* split overly long fetch_pack_usage line
* use strbuf_getline() instead of fgets() for reading refs from stdin
* minor optimization of the pkt-line reading loop, it was using xstrdup()
  even though the string length was already known, use xmemdupz() instead
* rework the remote-curl.c patch to not add new parameters to rpc_service(),
  instead add a new strbuf member to rpc_state to pass the info around

Ivan Todoroski (4):
  fetch-pack: new --stdin option to read refs from stdin
  remote-curl: send the refs to fetch-pack on stdin
  fetch-pack: test cases for the new --stdin option
  remote-curl: main test case for the OS command line overflow
