f8ec916731 Allow helpers to report in "list" command that the ref is unchanged
Helpers may use a line like "? name unchanged" to specify that there
is nothing new at that name, without any git-specific code to
determine the correct response.

72ff894308 Allow helper to map private ref names into normal names
This allows a helper to say that, when it handles "import
refs/heads/topic", the script it outputs will actually write to
refs/svn/origin/branches/topic; therefore, transport-helper should
read it from the latter location after git-fast-import completes.

e65e91ed4a Add support for "import" helper command
This command, supported if the "import" capability is advertized,
allows a helper to support fetching by outputting a git-fast-import
stream.

If both "fetch" and "import" are advertized, git itself will use
"fetch" (although other users may use "import" in this case).

3714831189 Allow fetch to modify refs
This allows the transport to use the null sha1 for a ref reported to
be present in the remote repository to indicate that a ref exists but
its actual value is presently unknown and will be set if the objects
are fetched.

Also adds documentation to the API to specify exactly what the methods
should do and how they should interpret arguments.

f2a37151d4 Fix memory leak in helper method for disconnect
Since some cases may need to disconnect from the helper and reconnect,
wrap the function that just disconnects in a function that also frees
transport->data.

ae4efe1957 Move WebDAV HTTP push under remote-curl
The remote helper interface now supports the push capability,
which can be used to ask the implementation to push one or more
specs to the remote repository.  For remote-curl we implement this
by calling the existing WebDAV based git-http-push executable.

Internally the helper interface uses the push_refs transport hook
so that the complexity of the refspec parsing and matching can be
reused between remote implementations.  When possible however the
helper protocol uses source ref name rather than the source SHA-1,
thereby allowing the helper to access this name if it is useful.

>From Clemens Buchacher <drizzd@aon.at>:
 update http tests according to remote-curl capabilities

 o Pushing packed refs is now fixed.

 o The transport helper fails if refs are already up-to-date. Add
   a test for that.

 o The transport helper will notice if refs are already
   up-to-date. We therefore need to update server info in the
   unpacked-refs test.

 o The transport helper will purge deleted branches automatically.

 o Use a variable ($ORIG_HEAD) instead of full SHA-1 name.

ef08ef9ea0 remote-helpers: Support custom transport options
Some transports, like the native pack transport implemented by
fetch-pack, support useful features like depth or include tags.
These should be exposed if the underlying helper knows how to
use them.

292ce46b60 remote-helpers: Fetch more than one ref in a batch
Some network protocols (e.g. native git://) are able to fetch more
than one ref at a time and reduce the overall transfer cost by
combining the requests into a single exchange.  Instead of feeding
each fetch request one at a time to the helper, feed all of them
at once so the helper can decide whether or not it should batch them.

2d14d65ce7 Use a clearer style to issue commands to remote helpers
This style is overkill for some commands, but it's worthwhile to use
the same style to issue all commands, and it's useful to avoid
open-coding string lengths.

c9e388bb48 Make the "traditionally-supported" URLs a special case
Instead of trying to make http://, https://, and ftp:// URLs
indicative of some sort of pattern of transport helper usage, make
them a special case which runs the "curl" helper, and leave the
mechanism by which arbitrary helpers will be chosen entirely to future
work.

1088261f6f git-http-fetch: not a builtin
This splits up git-http-fetch so that it isn't built-in.

It also removes the general dependency on curl, because it is no
longer used by any built-in code. Because they are no longer LIB_OBJS,
add LIB_H to the dependencies of http-related object files, and remove
http.h from the dependencies of transport.o

6eb996b570 Add support for external programs for handling native fetches
transport_get() can call transport_native_helper_init() to have list and
fetch-ref operations handled by running a separate program as:

 git remote-<something> <remote> [<url>]

This program then accepts, on its stdin, "list" and "fetch <hex>
<name>" commands; the former prints out a list of available refs and
either their hashes or what they are symrefs to, while the latter
fetches them into the local object database and prints a newline when done.
