You may also want to look at jgit's source code.  Its a cleaner
implementation of the protocol in 100% Java.  Not something you
would want to try and call directly from in Erlang, but it may
be easier to follow.

  http://repo.or.cz/w/egit.git/

Look inside of the org.spearce.jgit/src/org/spearce/jgit/transport
package.  In particular the client side of the protocol for git://
is in the TransportGitAnon class as two inner subclasses, one for
fetch ('git-upload-pack') and another for push ('git-receive-pack').
