[PATCH 0/2] Allow using ':' in git:// hostname.

[PATCH 0/2] Allow using ':' in git:// hostname.

[Ilari Liusvaara]

This series fixes two problems with using addresses containing ':'
(e.g. IPv6 numeric addresses) with git://:

1) ':' in hostname makes vhost headers impossible to parse

If there is ':' in address, the vhost headers become impossible
to parse because ':' is also splits host and port and port is
optional. Change git-daemon to be able to perform address unwrapping
so there is uniquely parseable syntax for hostnames containg
':' (this is compatible to how git-remote-gits encodes such vhost
headers and how git-daemon2[1] decodes them).

2) Client double-unwraps addresses

With git://, the addresses are unwrapped twice, which breaks
address parsing for addresses enclosed by [], which in turn is
required for hostnames containing ':'.  This is changed to unwarp
the addresses only once. This also changes wrapped addresses to
be sent as wrapped for vhost headers (the first patch adds ability
to parse this).

  Support addresses with ':' in git-daemon
  Allow use of []-wrapped addresses in git://

[PATCH 1/2] Support addresses with ':' in git-daemon

[Ilari Liusvaara]

If host address could have ':' in it (e.g. numeric IPv6 address), then
host and port could not be uniquely parsed. Fix this by parsing the
"["<host>"]":<port> and "["<host>"]" notations. Currently the built-in
git:// client would send <host>:<port> or <host> for such thing, but
it doesn't matter as due to bugs, resolving address fails if <host>
contains ':'.

[PATCH 2/2] Allow use of []-wrapped addresses in git://

[Ilari Liusvaara]

Allow using "["<host>"]":<port> and "["<host>"]" notations in git://
host addresses. This is needed to be able to connect to addresses
that contain ':' (e.g. numeric IPv6 addresses). Also send the host
header []-wrapped so it can actually be parsed by remote end.

[Junio C Hamano]

Seems like a maint material (together with your xmallocz() one).
Thanks.
