Jeff King a22e6f8547 receive-pack: send pack-processing stderr over sideband
Receive-pack invokes either unpack-objects or index-pack to
handle the incoming pack. However, we do not redirect the
stderr of the sub-processes at all, so it is never seen by
the client. From the initial thread adding sideband support,
which is here:

  http://thread.gmane.org/gmane.comp.version-control.git/139471

it is clear that some messages are specifically kept off the
sideband (with the assumption that they are of interest only
to an administrator, not the client). The stderr of the
subprocesses is mentioned in the thread, but it's unclear if
they are included in that group, or were simply forgotten.

However, there are a few good reasons to show them to the
client:

  1. In many cases, they are directly about the incoming
     packfile (e.g., fsck warnings with --strict, corruption
     in the packfile, etc). Without these messages, the
     client just gets "unpacker error" with no extra useful
     diagnosis.

  2. No matter what the cause, we are probably better off
     showing the errors to the client. If the client and the
     server admin are not the same entity, it is probably
     much easier for the client to cut-and-paste the errors
     they see than for the admin to try to dig them out of a
     log and correlate them with a particular session.

  3. Users of the ssh transport typically already see these
     stderr messages, as the remote's stderr is copied
     literally by ssh. This brings other transports (http,
     and push-over-git if you are crazy enough to enable it)
     more in line with ssh. As a bonus for ssh users,
     because the messages are now fed through the sideband
     and printed by the local git, they will have "remote:"
     prepended and be properly interleaved with any local
     output to stderr.

////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////

	GIT - the stupid content tracker

////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////

"git" can mean anything, depending on your mood.

 - random three-letter combination that is pronounceable, and not
   actually used by any common UNIX command.  The fact that it is a
   mispronunciation of "get" may or may not be relevant.
 - stupid. contemptible and despicable. simple. Take your pick from the
   dictionary of slang.
 - "global information tracker": you're in a good mood, and it actually
   works for you. Angels sing, and a light suddenly fills the room.
 - "goddamn idiotic truckload of sh*t": when it breaks

Git is a fast, scalable, distributed revision control system with an
unusually rich command set that provides both high-level operations
and full access to internals.

Git is an Open Source project covered by the GNU General Public License.
It was originally written by Linus Torvalds with help of a group of
hackers around the net. It is currently maintained by Junio C Hamano.

Please read the file INSTALL for installation instructions.

See Documentation/gittutorial.txt to get started, then see
Documentation/everyday.txt for a useful minimum set of commands, and
Documentation/git-commandname.txt for documentation of each command.
If git has been correctly installed, then the tutorial can also be
read with "man gittutorial" or "git help tutorial", and the
documentation of each command with "man git-commandname" or "git help
commandname".

CVS users may also want to read Documentation/gitcvs-migration.txt
("man gitcvs-migration" or "git help cvs-migration" if git is
installed).

Many Git online resources are accessible from http://git-scm.com/
including full documentation and Git related tools.

The user discussion and development of Git take place on the Git
mailing list -- everyone is welcome to post bug reports, feature
requests, comments and patches to git@vger.kernel.org (read
Documentation/SubmittingPatches for instructions on patch submission).
To subscribe to the list, send an email with just "subscribe git" in
the body to majordomo@vger.kernel.org. The mailing list archives are
available at http://marc.theaimsgroup.com/?l=git and other archival
sites.

The messages titled "A note from the maintainer", "What's in
git.git (stable)" and "What's cooking in git.git (topics)" and
the discussion following them on the mailing list give a good
reference for project status, development direction and
remaining tasks.
