I'm surprised you queued these. They really are not ready for
application to a tree. For example the CGI is really messed up for
trying to do Transfer-Encoding: chunked on its own, JH was right and
Apache does it for us. That removed a good chunk of code from it.
Writing the client for this is slightly non-trivial. I more-or-less
want to shove it into send-pack, not http-push, as the bulk of the
protocol we need to speak is there in send-pack.
Anyway, I'm going to try to get back to this topic more later
this week. I have been focusing on JGit this week (or at least
trying to) as I really need to get some stuff done there for EGit.
