Subject: [RFC 1/2] Add backdoor options to receive-pack for use in Git-aware CGI
Date: Sun,  3 Aug 2008 00:25:16 -0700	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <1217748317-70096-1-git-send-email-spearce@spearce.org> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <20080803025602.GB27465@spearce.org>

The new --report-status flag forces the status report feature of
the push protocol to be enabled.  This can be useful in a CGI
program that implements the server side of a "smart" Git-aware
HTTP transport.  The CGI code can perform the selection of the
feature and ask receive-pack to enable it automatically.

The new --no-advertise-heads causes receive-pack to bypass its usual
display of known refs to the client, and instead immediately start
reading the commands and pack from stdin.  This is useful in a CGI
situation where we want to hand off all input to receive-pack.
