+.SH "NAME"
+gitformat-chunk \- Chunk\-based file formats
+.SH "SYNOPSIS"
+.sp
+Used by \fBgitformat-commit-graph\fR(5) and the "MIDX" format (see the pack format documentation in \fBgitformat-pack\fR(5))\&.
+.SH "DESCRIPTION"
+.sp
+Some file formats in Git use a common concept of "chunks" to describe sections of the file\&. This allows structured access to a large file by scanning a small "table of contents" for the remaining data\&. This common format is used by the \fBcommit\-graph\fR and \fBmulti\-pack\-index\fR files\&. See the \fBmulti\-pack\-index\fR format in \fBgitformat-pack\fR(5) and the \fBcommit\-graph\fR format in \fBgitformat-commit-graph\fR(5) for how they use the chunks to describe structured data\&.
+.sp
+A chunk\-based file format begins with some header information custom to that format\&. That header should include enough information to identify the file type, format version, and number of chunks in the file\&. From this information, that file can determine the start of the chunk\-based region\&.
+.sp
+The chunk\-based region starts with a table of contents describing where each chunk starts and ends\&. This consists of (C+1) rows of 12 bytes each, where C is the number of chunks\&. Consider the following table:
+.sp
+.if n \{\
+.RS 4
+.\}
+.nf
+| Chunk ID (4 bytes) | Chunk Offset (8 bytes) |
+|\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-|\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-|
+| ID[0]              | OFFSET[0]              |
+| \&.\&.\&.                | \&.\&.\&.                    |
+| ID[C]              | OFFSET[C]              |
+| 0x0000             | OFFSET[C+1]            |
+.fi
+.if n \{\
+.RE
+.\}
+.sp
+Each row consists of a 4\-byte chunk identifier (ID) and an 8\-byte offset\&. Each integer is stored in network\-byte order\&.
+.sp
+The chunk identifier \fBID[i]\fR is a label for the data stored within this fill from \fBOFFSET[i]\fR (inclusive) to \fBOFFSET[i+1]\fR (exclusive)\&. Thus, the size of the \fBi`th chunk is equal to the difference between `OFFSET[i+1]\fR and \fBOFFSET[i]\fR\&. This requires that the chunk data appears contiguously in the same order as the table of contents\&.
+.sp
+The final entry in the table of contents must be four zero bytes\&. This confirms that the table of contents is ending and provides the offset for the end of the chunk\-based data\&.
+.sp
+Note: The chunk\-based format expects that the file contains \fIat least\fR a trailing hash after \fBOFFSET[C+1]\fR\&.
+.sp
+Functions for working with chunk\-based file formats are declared in \fBchunk\-format\&.h\fR\&. Using these methods provide extra checks that assist developers when creating new file formats\&.
+.SH "WRITING CHUNK\-BASED FILE FORMATS"
+.sp
+To write a chunk\-based file format, create a \fBstruct chunkfile\fR by calling \fBinit_chunkfile()\fR and pass a \fBstruct hashfile\fR pointer\&. The caller is responsible for opening the \fBhashfile\fR and writing header information so the file format is identifiable before the chunk\-based format begins\&.
+.sp
+Then, call \fBadd_chunk()\fR for each chunk that is intended for write\&. This populates the \fBchunkfile\fR with information about the order and size of each chunk to write\&. Provide a \fBchunk_write_fn\fR function pointer to perform the write of the chunk data upon request\&.
+.sp
+Call \fBwrite_chunkfile()\fR to write the table of contents to the \fBhashfile\fR followed by each of the chunks\&. This will verify that each chunk wrote the expected amount of data so the table of contents is correct\&.
+.sp
+Finally, call \fBfree_chunkfile()\fR to clear the \fBstruct chunkfile\fR data\&. The caller is responsible for finalizing the \fBhashfile\fR by writing the trailing hash and closing the file\&.
+.SH "READING CHUNK\-BASED FILE FORMATS"
+.sp
+To read a chunk\-based file format, the file must be opened as a memory\-mapped region\&. The chunk\-format API expects that the entire file is mapped as a contiguous memory region\&.
+.sp
+Initialize a \fBstruct chunkfile\fR pointer with \fBinit_chunkfile(NULL)\fR\&.
+.sp
+After reading the header information from the beginning of the file, including the chunk count, call \fBread_table_of_contents()\fR to populate the \fBstruct chunkfile\fR with the list of chunks, their offsets, and their sizes\&.
+.sp
+Extract the data information for each chunk using \fBpair_chunk()\fR or \fBread_chunk()\fR:
+.sp
+.RS 4
+.ie n \{\
+\h'-04'\(bu\h'+03'\c
+.\}
+.el \{\
+.sp -1
+.IP \(bu 2.3
+.\}
+\fBpair_chunk()\fR
+assigns a given pointer with the location inside the memory\-mapped file corresponding to that chunk\(cqs offset\&. If the chunk does not exist, then the pointer is not modified\&.
+.RE
+.sp
+.RS 4
+.ie n \{\
+\h'-04'\(bu\h'+03'\c
+.\}
+.el \{\
+.sp -1
+.IP \(bu 2.3
+.\}
+\fBread_chunk()\fR
+takes a
+\fBchunk_read_fn\fR
+function pointer and calls it with the appropriate initial pointer and size information\&. The function is not called if the chunk does not exist\&. Use this method to read chunks if you need to perform immediate parsing or if you need to execute logic based on the size of the chunk\&.
+.RE
+.sp
+After calling these methods, call \fBfree_chunkfile()\fR to clear the \fBstruct chunkfile\fR data\&. This will not close the memory\-mapped region\&. Callers are expected to own that data for the timeframe the pointers into the region are needed\&.
+.SH "EXAMPLES"
+.sp
+These file formats use the chunk\-format API, and can be used as examples for future formats:
+.sp

+.SS "Size encoding"
+.sp
+This document uses the following "size encoding" of non\-negative integers: From each byte, the seven least significant bits are used to form the resulting integer\&. As long as the most significant bit is 1, this process continues; the byte with MSB 0 provides the last seven bits\&. The seven\-bit chunks are concatenated\&. Later values are more significant\&.
+.sp
+This size encoding should not be confused with the "offset encoding", which is also used in this document\&.
+.SS "Deltified representation"
+.sp
+Conceptually there are only four object types: commit, tree, tag and blob\&. However to save space, an object could be stored as a "delta" of another "base" object\&. These representations are assigned new types ofs\-delta and ref\-delta, which is only valid in a pack file\&.
+.sp
+Both ofs\-delta and ref\-delta store the "delta" to be applied to another object (called \fIbase object\fR) to reconstruct the object\&. The difference between them is, ref\-delta directly encodes base object name\&. If the base object is in the same pack, ofs\-delta encodes the offset of the base object in the pack instead\&.
+.sp
+The base object could also be deltified if it\(cqs in the same pack\&. Ref\-delta can also refer to an object outside the pack (i\&.e\&. the so\-called "thin pack")\&. When stored on disk however, the pack should be self contained to avoid cyclic dependency\&.
+.sp
+The delta data starts with the size of the base object and the size of the object to be reconstructed\&. These sizes are encoded using the size encoding from above\&. The remainder of the delta data is a sequence of instructions to reconstruct the object from the base object\&. If the base object is deltified, it must be converted to canonical form first\&. Each instruction appends more and more data to the target object until it\(cqs complete\&. There are two supported instructions so far: one for copy a byte range from the source object and one for inserting new data embedded in the instruction itself\&.
+.sp
+Each instruction has variable length\&. Instruction type is determined by the seventh bit of the first octet\&. The following diagrams follow the convention in RFC 1951 (Deflate compressed data format)\&.

+.sp

+.SH "MULTI\-PACK\-INDEX REVERSE INDEXES"
+.sp
+Similar to the pack\-based reverse index, the multi\-pack index can also be used to generate a reverse index\&.
+.sp
+Instead of mapping between offset, pack\-, and index position, this reverse index maps between an object\(cqs position within the MIDX, and that object\(cqs position within a pseudo\-pack that the MIDX describes (i\&.e\&., the ith entry of the multi\-pack reverse index holds the MIDX position of ith object in pseudo\-pack order)\&.
+.sp
+To clarify the difference between these orderings, consider a multi\-pack reachability bitmap (which does not yet exist, but is what we are building towards here)\&. Each bit needs to correspond to an object in the MIDX, and so we need an efficient mapping from bit position to MIDX position\&.
+.sp
+One solution is to let bits occupy the same position in the oid\-sorted index stored by the MIDX\&. But because oids are effectively random, their resulting reachability bitmaps would have no locality, and thus compress poorly\&. (This is the reason that single\-pack bitmaps use the pack ordering, and not the \&.idx ordering, for the same purpose\&.)
+.sp
+So we\(cqd like to define an ordering for the whole MIDX based around pack ordering, which has far better locality (and thus compresses more efficiently)\&. We can think of a pseudo\-pack created by the concatenation of all of the packs in the MIDX\&. E\&.g\&., if we had a MIDX with three packs (a, b, c), with 10, 15, and 20 objects respectively, we can imagine an ordering of the objects like:
+.sp
+.if n \{\
+.RS 4
+.\}
+.nf
+|a,0|a,1|\&.\&.\&.|a,9|b,0|b,1|\&.\&.\&.|b,14|c,0|c,1|\&.\&.\&.|c,19|
+.fi
+.if n \{\
+.RE
+.\}
+.sp
+where the ordering of the packs is defined by the MIDX\(cqs pack list, and then the ordering of objects within each pack is the same as the order in the actual packfile\&.
+.sp
+Given the list of packs and their counts of objects, you can na\(:ively reconstruct that pseudo\-pack ordering (e\&.g\&., the object at position 27 must be (c,1) because packs "a" and "b" consumed 25 of the slots)\&. But there\(cqs a catch\&. Objects may be duplicated between packs, in which case the MIDX only stores one pointer to the object (and thus we\(cqd want only one slot in the bitmap)\&.
+.sp
+Callers could handle duplicates themselves by reading objects in order of their bit\-position, but that\(cqs linear in the number of objects, and much too expensive for ordinary bitmap lookups\&. Building a reverse index solves this, since it is the logical inverse of the index, and that index has already removed duplicates\&. But, building a reverse index on the fly can be expensive\&. Since we already have an on\-disk format for pack\-based reverse indexes, let\(cqs reuse it for the MIDX\(cqs pseudo\-pack, too\&.
+.sp
+Objects from the MIDX are ordered as follows to string together the pseudo\-pack\&. Let \fBpack(o)\fR return the pack from which \fBo\fR was selected by the MIDX, and define an ordering of packs based on their numeric ID (as stored by the MIDX)\&. Let \fBoffset(o)\fR return the object offset of \fBo\fR within \fBpack(o)\fR\&. Then, compare \fBo1\fR and \fBo2\fR as follows:
+.sp
+.RS 4
+.ie n \{\
+\h'-04'\(bu\h'+03'\c
+.\}
+.el \{\
+.sp -1
+.IP \(bu 2.3
+.\}
+If one of
+\fBpack(o1)\fR
+and
+\fBpack(o2)\fR
+is preferred and the other is not, then the preferred one sorts first\&.
+.sp
+(This is a detail that allows the MIDX bitmap to determine which pack should be used by the pack\-reuse mechanism, since it can ask the MIDX for the pack containing the object at bit position 0)\&.

+.SH "CRUFT PACKS"
+.sp
+The cruft packs feature offer an alternative to Git\(cqs traditional mechanism of removing unreachable objects\&. This document provides an overview of Git\(cqs pruning mechanism, and how a cruft pack can be used instead to accomplish the same\&.
+.SS "Background"
+.sp
+To remove unreachable objects from your repository, Git offers \fBgit repack \-Ad\fR (see \fBgit-repack\fR(1))\&. Quoting from the documentation:
+.sp
+.if n \{\
+.RS 4
+.\}
+.nf
+[\&.\&.\&.] unreachable objects in a previous pack become loose, unpacked objects,
+instead of being left in the old pack\&. [\&.\&.\&.] loose unreachable objects will be
+pruned according to normal expiry rules with the next \(aqgit gc\(aq invocation\&.
+.fi
+.if n \{\
+.RE
+.\}
+.sp
+.sp
+Unreachable objects aren\(cqt removed immediately, since doing so could race with an incoming push which may reference an object which is about to be deleted\&. Instead, those unreachable objects are stored as loose objects and stay that way until they are older than the expiration window, at which point they are removed by \fBgit-prune\fR(1)\&.
+.sp
+Git must store these unreachable objects loose in order to keep track of their per\-object mtimes\&. If these unreachable objects were written into one big pack, then either freshening that pack (because an object contained within it was re\-written) or creating a new pack of unreachable objects would cause the pack\(cqs mtime to get updated, and the objects within it would never leave the expiration window\&. Instead, objects are stored loose in order to keep track of the individual object mtimes and avoid a situation where all cruft objects are freshened at once\&.
+.sp
+This can lead to undesirable situations when a repository contains many unreachable objects which have not yet left the grace period\&. Having large directories in the shards of \fB\&.git/objects\fR can lead to decreased performance in the repository\&. But given enough unreachable objects, this can lead to inode starvation and degrade the performance of the whole system\&. Since we can never pack those objects, these repositories often take up a large amount of disk space, since we can only zlib compress them, but not store them in delta chains\&.
+.SS "Cruft packs"
+.sp
+A cruft pack eliminates the need for storing unreachable objects in a loose state by including the per\-object mtimes in a separate file alongside a single pack containing all loose objects\&.
+.sp
+A cruft pack is written by \fBgit repack \-\-cruft\fR when generating a new pack\&. \fBgit-pack-objects\fR(1)\(aqs \fB\-\-cruft\fR option\&. Note that \fBgit repack \-\-cruft\fR is a classic all\-into\-one repack, meaning that everything in the resulting pack is reachable, and everything else is unreachable\&. Once written, the \fB\-\-cruft\fR option instructs \fBgit repack\fR to generate another pack containing only objects not packed in the previous step (which equates to packing all unreachable objects together)\&. This progresses as follows:
+.sp
+.RS 4
+.ie n \{\
+\h'-04' 1.\h'+01'\c
+.\}
+.el \{\
+.sp -1
+.IP "  1." 4.2
+.\}
+Enumerate every object, marking any object which is (a) not contained in a kept\-pack, and (b) whose mtime is within the grace period as a traversal tip\&.
+.RE
+.sp
+.RS 4
+.ie n \{\
+\h'-04' 2.\h'+01'\c
+.\}
+.el \{\
+.sp -1
+.IP "  2." 4.2
+.\}
+Perform a reachability traversal based on the tips gathered in the previous step, adding every object along the way to the pack\&.
+.RE
+.sp
+.RS 4
+.ie n \{\
+\h'-04' 3.\h'+01'\c
+.\}
+.el \{\
+.sp -1
+.IP "  3." 4.2
+.\}
+Write the pack out, along with a
+\fB\&.mtimes\fR
+file that records the per\-object timestamps\&.
+.RE
+.sp
+This mode is invoked internally by \fBgit-repack\fR(1) when instructed to write a cruft pack\&. Crucially, the set of in\-core kept packs is exactly the set of packs which will not be deleted by the repack; in other words, they contain all of the repository\(cqs reachable objects\&.
+.sp
+When a repository already has a cruft pack, \fBgit repack \-\-cruft\fR typically only adds objects to it\&. An exception to this is when \fBgit repack\fR is given the \fB\-\-cruft\-expiration\fR option, which allows the generated cruft pack to omit expired objects instead of waiting for \fBgit-gc\fR(1) to expire those objects later on\&.
+.sp
+It is \fBgit-gc\fR(1) that is typically responsible for removing expired unreachable objects\&.
+.SS "Caution for mixed\-version environments"
+.sp
+Repositories that have cruft packs in them will continue to work with any older version of Git\&. Note, however, that previous versions of Git which do not understand the \fB\&.mtimes\fR file will use the cruft pack\(cqs mtime as the mtime for all of the objects in it\&. In other words, do not expect older (pre\-cruft pack) versions of Git to interpret or even read the contents of the \fB\&.mtimes\fR file\&.
+.sp
+Note that having mixed versions of Git GC\-ing the same repository can lead to unreachable objects never being completely pruned\&. This can happen under the following circumstances:
+.sp
+.RS 4
+.ie n \{\
+\h'-04'\(bu\h'+03'\c
+.\}
+.el \{\
+.sp -1
+.IP \(bu 2.3
+.\}
+An older version of Git running GC explodes the contents of an existing cruft pack loose, using the cruft pack\(cqs mtime\&.
+.RE
+.sp
+.RS 4
+.ie n \{\
+\h'-04'\(bu\h'+03'\c
+.\}
+.el \{\
+.sp -1
+.IP \(bu 2.3
+.\}
+A newer version running GC collects those loose objects into a cruft pack, where the \&.mtime file reflects the loose object\(cqs actual mtimes, but the cruft pack mtime is "now"\&.
+.RE
+.sp
+Repeating this process will lead to unreachable objects not getting pruned as a result of repeatedly resetting the objects\(aq mtimes to the present time\&.
+.sp
+If you are GC\-ing repositories in a mixed version environment, consider omitting the \fB\-\-cruft\fR option when using \fBgit-repack\fR(1) and \fBgit-gc\fR(1), and leaving the \fBgc\&.cruftPacks\fR configuration unset until all writers understand cruft packs\&.
+.SS "Alternatives"
+.sp
+Notable alternatives to this design include:
+.sp
+.RS 4
+.ie n \{\
+\h'-04'\(bu\h'+03'\c
+.\}
+.el \{\
+.sp -1
+.IP \(bu 2.3

+The location of the per\-object mtime data, and

+.ie n \{\
+\h'-04'\(bu\h'+03'\c
+.\}
+.el \{\
+.sp -1
+.IP \(bu 2.3

+Storing unreachable objects in multiple cruft packs\&.
+.RE
+.sp
+On the location of mtime data, a new auxiliary file tied to the pack was chosen to avoid complicating the \fB\&.idx\fR format\&. If the \fB\&.idx\fR format were ever to gain support for optional chunks of data, it may make sense to consolidate the \fB\&.mtimes\fR format into the \fB\&.idx\fR itself\&.
+.sp
+Storing unreachable objects among multiple cruft packs (e\&.g\&., creating a new cruft pack during each repacking operation including only unreachable objects which aren\(cqt already stored in an earlier cruft pack) is significantly more complicated to construct, and so aren\(cqt pursued here\&. The obvious drawback to the current implementation is that the entire cruft pack must be re\-written from scratch\&.

+.sp

+<over\-the\-wire protocol>
+.fi
+.sp
+.SH "DESCRIPTION"
+.sp
+Git uses cryptographic signatures in various places, currently objects (tags, commits, mergetags) and transactions (pushes)\&. In every case, the command which is about to create an object or transaction determines a payload from that, calls gpg to obtain a detached signature for the payload (\fBgpg \-bsa\fR) and embeds the signature into the object or transaction\&.
+.sp
+Signatures always begin with \fB\-\-\-\-\-BEGIN PGP SIGNATURE\-\-\-\-\-\fR and end with \fB\-\-\-\-\-END PGP SIGNATURE\-\-\-\-\-\fR, unless gpg is told to produce RFC1991 signatures which use \fBMESSAGE\fR instead of \fBSIGNATURE\fR\&.
+.sp
+Signatures sometimes appear as a part of the normal payload (e\&.g\&. a signed tag has the signature block appended after the payload that the signature applies to), and sometimes appear in the value of an object header (e\&.g\&. a merge commit that merged a signed tag would have the entire tag contents on its "mergetag" header)\&. In the case of the latter, the usual multi\-line formatting rule for object headers applies\&. I\&.e\&. the second and subsequent lines are prefixed with a SP to signal that the line is continued from the previous line\&.
+.sp
+This is even true for an originally empty line\&. In the following examples, the end of line that ends with a whitespace letter is highlighted with a \fB$\fR sign; if you are trying to recreate these example by hand, do not cut and paste them\-\-\-they are there primarily to highlight extra whitespace at the end of some lines\&.
+.sp
+The signed payload and the way the signature is embedded depends on the type of the object resp\&. transaction\&.

+.sp
+this document describes capabilities for versions 0 and 1 of the pack protocol\&. For version 2, please refer to the \fBgitprotocol-v2\fR(5) doc\&.
+.sp .5v
+.RE
+.sp
+Servers SHOULD support all capabilities defined in this document\&.
+.sp
+On the very first line of the initial server response of either receive\-pack and upload\-pack the first reference is followed by a NUL byte and then a list of space delimited server capabilities\&. These allow the server to declare what it can and cannot support to the client\&.
+.sp
+Client will then send a space separated list of capabilities it wants to be in effect\&. The client MUST NOT ask for capabilities the server did not say it supports\&.
+.sp
+Server MUST diagnose and abort if capabilities it does not understand was sent\&. Server MUST NOT ignore capabilities that client requested and server advertised\&. As a consequence of these rules, server MUST NOT advertise capabilities it does not understand\&.
+.sp
+The \fIatomic\fR, \fIreport\-status\fR, \fIreport\-status\-v2\fR, \fIdelete\-refs\fR, \fIquiet\fR, and \fIpush\-cert\fR capabilities are sent and recognized by the receive\-pack (push to server) process\&.
+.sp
+The \fIofs\-delta\fR and \fIside\-band\-64k\fR capabilities are sent and recognized by both upload\-pack and receive\-pack protocols\&. The \fIagent\fR and \fIsession\-id\fR capabilities may optionally be sent in both protocols\&.
+.sp
+All other capabilities are only recognized by the upload\-pack (fetch from server) process\&.
+.SH "MULTI_ACK"
+.sp
+The \fImulti_ack\fR capability allows the server to return "ACK obj\-id continue" as soon as it finds a commit that it can use as a common base, between the client\(cqs wants and the client\(cqs have set\&.
+.sp
+By sending this early, the server can potentially head off the client from walking any further down that particular branch of the client\(cqs repository history\&. The client may still need to walk down other branches, sending have lines for those, until the server has a complete cut across the DAG, or the client has said "done"\&.
+.sp
+Without multi_ack, a client sends have lines in \-\-date\-order until the server has found a common base\&. That means the client will send have lines that are already known by the server to be common, because they overlap in time with another branch that the server hasn\(cqt found a common base on yet\&.
+.sp
+For example suppose the client has commits in caps that the server doesn\(cqt and the server has commits in lower case that the client doesn\(cqt, as in the following diagram:
+.sp
+.if n \{\
+.RS 4
+.\}
+.nf
+   +\-\-\-\- u \-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\- x
+  /              +\-\-\-\-\- y
+ /              /
+a \-\- b \-\- c \-\- d \-\- E \-\- F
+   \e
+    +\-\-\- Q \-\- R \-\- S
+.fi
+.if n \{\
+.RE
+.\}
+.sp
+If the client wants x,y and starts out by saying have F,S, the server doesn\(cqt know what F,S is\&. Eventually the client says "have d" and the server sends "ACK d continue" to let the client know to stop walking down that line (so don\(cqt send c\-b\-a), but it\(cqs not done yet, it needs a base for x\&. The client keeps going with S\-R\-Q, until a gets reached, at which point the server has a clear base and it all ends\&.
+.sp
+Without multi_ack the client would have sent that c\-b\-a chain anyway, interleaved with S\-R\-Q\&.
+.SH "MULTI_ACK_DETAILED"
+.sp
+This is an extension of multi_ack that permits client to better understand the server\(cqs in\-memory state\&. See \fBgitprotocol-pack\fR(5), section "Packfile Negotiation" for more information\&.
+.SH "NO\-DONE"
+.sp
+This capability should only be used with the smart HTTP protocol\&. If multi_ack_detailed and no\-done are both present, then the sender is free to immediately send a pack following its first "ACK obj\-id ready" message\&.
+.sp
+Without no\-done in the smart HTTP protocol, the server session would end and the client has to make another trip to send "done" before the server can send the pack\&. no\-done removes the last round and thus slightly reduces latency\&.
+.SH "THIN\-PACK"
+.sp
+A thin pack is one with deltas which reference base objects not contained within the pack (but are known to exist at the receiving end)\&. This can reduce the network traffic significantly, but it requires the receiving end to know how to "thicken" these packs by adding the missing bases to the pack\&.
+.sp
+The upload\-pack server advertises \fIthin\-pack\fR when it can generate and send a thin pack\&. A client requests the \fIthin\-pack\fR capability when it understands how to "thicken" it, notifying the server that it can receive such a pack\&. A client MUST NOT request the \fIthin\-pack\fR capability if it cannot turn a thin pack into a self\-contained pack\&.
+.sp
+Receive\-pack, on the other hand, is assumed by default to be able to handle thin packs, but can ask the client not to use the feature by advertising the \fIno\-thin\fR capability\&. A client MUST NOT send a thin pack if the server advertises the \fIno\-thin\fR capability\&.
+.sp
+The reasons for this asymmetry are historical\&. The receive\-pack program did not exist until after the invention of thin packs, so historically the reference implementation of receive\-pack always understood thin packs\&. Adding \fIno\-thin\fR later allowed receive\-pack to disable the feature in a backwards\-compatible manner\&.
+.SH "SIDE\-BAND, SIDE\-BAND\-64K"
+.sp
+This capability means that server can send, and client understand multiplexed progress reports and error info interleaved with the packfile itself\&.
+.sp
+These two options are mutually exclusive\&. A modern client always favors \fIside\-band\-64k\fR\&.
+.sp
+Either mode indicates that the packfile data will be streamed broken up into packets of up to either 1000 bytes in the case of \fIside_band\fR, or 65520 bytes in the case of \fIside_band_64k\fR\&. Each packet is made up of a leading 4\-byte pkt\-line length of how much data is in the packet, followed by a 1\-byte stream code, followed by the actual data\&.
+.sp
+The stream code can be one of:
+.sp
+.if n \{\
+.RS 4
+.\}
+.nf
+1 \- pack data
+2 \- progress messages
+3 \- fatal error message just before stream aborts
+.fi
+.if n \{\
+.RE
+.\}
+.sp
+The "side\-band\-64k" capability came about as a way for newer clients that can handle much larger packets to request packets that are actually crammed nearly full, while maintaining backward compatibility for the older clients\&.
+.sp
+Further, with side\-band and its up to 1000\-byte messages, it\(cqs actually 999 bytes of payload and 1 byte for the stream code\&. With side\-band\-64k, same deal, you have up to 65519 bytes of data and 1 byte for the stream code\&.
+.sp
+The client MUST send only maximum of one of "side\-band" and "side\- band\-64k"\&. Server MUST diagnose it as an error if client requests both\&.
+.SH "OFS\-DELTA"
+.sp
+Server can send, and client understand PACKv2 with delta referring to its base by position in pack rather than by an obj\-id\&. That is, they can send/read OBJ_OFS_DELTA (aka type 6) in a packfile\&.
+.SH "AGENT"
+.sp
+The server may optionally send a capability of the form \fBagent=X\fR to notify the client that the server is running version \fBX\fR\&. The client may optionally return its own agent string by responding with an \fBagent=Y\fR capability (but it MUST NOT do so if the server did not mention the agent capability)\&. The \fBX\fR and \fBY\fR strings may contain any printable ASCII characters except space (i\&.e\&., the byte range 32 < x < 127), and are typically of the form "package/version" (e\&.g\&., "git/1\&.8\&.3\&.1")\&. The agent strings are purely informative for statistics and debugging purposes, and MUST NOT be used to programmatically assume the presence or absence of particular features\&.
+.SH "OBJECT\-FORMAT"
+.sp
+This capability, which takes a hash algorithm as an argument, indicates that the server supports the given hash algorithms\&. It may be sent multiple times; if so, the first one given is the one used in the ref advertisement\&.
+.sp
+When provided by the client, this indicates that it intends to use the given hash algorithm to communicate\&. The algorithm provided must be one that the server supports\&.
+.sp
+If this capability is not provided, it is assumed that the only supported algorithm is SHA\-1\&.
+.SH "SYMREF"
+.sp
+This parameterized capability is used to inform the receiver which symbolic ref points to which ref; for example, "symref=HEAD:refs/heads/master" tells the receiver that HEAD points to master\&. This capability can be repeated to represent multiple symrefs\&.
+.sp
+Servers SHOULD include this capability for the HEAD symref if it is one of the refs being sent\&.
+.sp
+Clients MAY use the parameters from this capability to select the proper initial branch when cloning a repository\&.
+.SH "SHALLOW"
+.sp
+This capability adds "deepen", "shallow" and "unshallow" commands to the fetch\-pack/upload\-pack protocol so clients can request shallow clones\&.
+.SH "DEEPEN\-SINCE"
+.sp
+This capability adds "deepen\-since" command to fetch\-pack/upload\-pack protocol so the client can request shallow clones that are cut at a specific time, instead of depth\&. Internally it\(cqs equivalent of doing "rev\-list \-\-max\-age=<timestamp>" on the server side\&. "deepen\-since" cannot be used with "deepen"\&.
+.SH "DEEPEN\-NOT"
+.sp
+This capability adds "deepen\-not" command to fetch\-pack/upload\-pack protocol so the client can request shallow clones that are cut at a specific revision, instead of depth\&. Internally it\(cqs equivalent of doing "rev\-list \-\-not <rev>" on the server side\&. "deepen\-not" cannot be used with "deepen", but can be used with "deepen\-since"\&.
+.SH "DEEPEN\-RELATIVE"
+.sp
+If this capability is requested by the client, the semantics of "deepen" command is changed\&. The "depth" argument is the depth from the current shallow boundary, instead of the depth from remote refs\&.
+.SH "NO\-PROGRESS"
+.sp
+The client was started with "git clone \-q" or something, and doesn\(cqt want that side band 2\&. Basically the client just says "I do not wish to receive stream 2 on sideband, so do not send it to me, and if you did, I will drop it on the floor anyway"\&. However, the sideband channel 3 is still used for error responses\&.
+.SH "INCLUDE\-TAG"
+.sp
+The \fIinclude\-tag\fR capability is about sending annotated tags if we are sending objects they point to\&. If we pack an object to the client, and a tag object points exactly at that object, we pack the tag object too\&. In general this allows a client to get all new annotated tags when it fetches a branch, in a single network connection\&.
+.sp
+Clients MAY always send include\-tag, hardcoding it into a request when the server advertises this capability\&. The decision for a client to request include\-tag only has to do with the client\(cqs desires for tag data, whether or not a server had advertised objects in the refs/tags/* namespace\&.
+.sp
+Servers MUST pack the tags if their referrant is packed and the client has requested include\-tags\&.
+.sp
+Clients MUST be prepared for the case where a server has ignored include\-tag and has not actually sent tags in the pack\&. In such cases the client SHOULD issue a subsequent fetch to acquire the tags that include\-tag would have otherwise given the client\&.
+.sp
+The server SHOULD send include\-tag, if it supports it, regardless of whether or not there are tags available\&.
+.SH "REPORT\-STATUS"
+.sp
+The receive\-pack process can receive a \fIreport\-status\fR capability, which tells it that the client wants a report of what happened after a packfile upload and reference update\&. If the pushing client requests this capability, after unpacking and updating references the server will respond with whether the packfile unpacked successfully and if each reference was updated successfully\&. If any of those were not successful, it will send back an error message\&. See \fBgitprotocol-pack\fR(5) for example messages\&.
+.SH "REPORT\-STATUS\-V2"
+.sp
+Capability \fIreport\-status\-v2\fR extends capability \fIreport\-status\fR by adding new "option" directives in order to support reference rewritten by the "proc\-receive" hook\&. The "proc\-receive" hook may handle a command for a pseudo\-reference which may create or update a reference with different name, new\-oid, and old\-oid\&. While the capability \fIreport\-status\fR cannot report for such case\&. See \fBgitprotocol-pack\fR(5) for details\&.
+.SH "DELETE\-REFS"
+.sp
+If the server sends back the \fIdelete\-refs\fR capability, it means that it is capable of accepting a zero\-id value as the target value of a reference update\&. It is not sent back by the client, it simply informs the client that it can be sent zero\-id values to delete references\&.
+.SH "QUIET"
+.sp
+If the receive\-pack server advertises the \fIquiet\fR capability, it is capable of silencing human\-readable progress output which otherwise may be shown when processing the received pack\&. A send\-pack client should respond with the \fIquiet\fR capability to suppress server\-side progress reporting if the local progress reporting is also being suppressed (e\&.g\&., via \fBpush \-q\fR, or if stderr does not go to a tty)\&.
+.SH "ATOMIC"
+.sp
+If the server sends the \fIatomic\fR capability it is capable of accepting atomic pushes\&. If the pushing client requests this capability, the server will update the refs in one atomic transaction\&. Either all refs are updated or none\&.
+.SH "PUSH\-OPTIONS"
+.sp
+If the server sends the \fIpush\-options\fR capability it is able to accept push options after the update commands have been sent, but before the packfile is streamed\&. If the pushing client requests this capability, the server will pass the options to the pre\- and post\- receive hooks that process this push request\&.
+.SH "ALLOW\-TIP\-SHA1\-IN\-WANT"
+.sp
+If the upload\-pack server advertises this capability, fetch\-pack may send "want" lines with object names that exist at the server but are not advertised by upload\-pack\&. For historical reasons, the name of this capability contains "sha1"\&. Object names are always given using the object format negotiated through the \fIobject\-format\fR capability\&.
+.SH "ALLOW\-REACHABLE\-SHA1\-IN\-WANT"
+.sp
+If the upload\-pack server advertises this capability, fetch\-pack may send "want" lines with object names that exist at the server but are not advertised by upload\-pack\&. For historical reasons, the name of this capability contains "sha1"\&. Object names are always given using the object format negotiated through the \fIobject\-format\fR capability\&.
+.SH "PUSH\-CERT=<NONCE>"
+.sp
+The receive\-pack server that advertises this capability is willing to accept a signed push certificate, and asks the <nonce> to be included in the push certificate\&. A send\-pack client MUST NOT send a push\-cert packet unless the receive\-pack server advertises this capability\&.
+.SH "FILTER"
+.sp
+If the upload\-pack server advertises the \fIfilter\fR capability, fetch\-pack may send "filter" commands to request a partial clone or partial fetch and request that the server omit various objects from the packfile\&.
+.SH "SESSION\-ID=<SESSION ID>"
+.sp
+The server may advertise a session ID that can be used to identify this process across multiple requests\&. The client may advertise its own session ID back to the server as well\&.
+.sp
+Session IDs should be unique to a given process\&. They must fit within a packet\-line, and must not contain non\-printable or whitespace characters\&. The current implementation uses trace2 session IDs (see \m[blue]\fBapi\-trace2\fR\m[]\&\s-2\u[1]\d\s+2 for details), but this may change and users of the session ID should not rely on this fact\&.

+.SH "NAME"
+gitprotocol-http \- Git HTTP\-based protocols
+.SH "SYNOPSIS"
+.sp
+.nf
+<over\-the\-wire\-protocol>
+.fi
+.sp
+.SH "DESCRIPTION"
+.sp
+Git supports two HTTP based transfer protocols\&. A "dumb" protocol which requires only a standard HTTP server on the server end of the connection, and a "smart" protocol which requires a Git aware CGI (or server module)\&. This document describes both protocols\&.
+.sp
+As a design feature smart clients can automatically upgrade "dumb" protocol URLs to smart URLs\&. This permits all users to have the same published URL, and the peers automatically select the most efficient transport available to them\&.
+.SH "URL FORMAT"
+.sp
+URLs for Git repositories accessed by HTTP use the standard HTTP URL syntax documented by RFC 1738, so they are of the form:
+.sp
+.if n \{\
+.RS 4
+.\}
+.nf
+http://<host>:<port>/<path>?<searchpart>
+.fi
+.if n \{\
+.RE
+.\}
+.sp
+Within this documentation the placeholder \fB$GIT_URL\fR will stand for the http:// repository URL entered by the end\-user\&.
+.sp
+Servers SHOULD handle all requests to locations matching \fB$GIT_URL\fR, as both the "smart" and "dumb" HTTP protocols used by Git operate by appending additional path components onto the end of the user supplied \fB$GIT_URL\fR string\&.
+.sp
+An example of a dumb client requesting for a loose object:
+.sp
+.if n \{\
+.RS 4
+.\}
+.nf
+$GIT_URL:     http://example\&.com:8080/git/repo\&.git
+URL request:  http://example\&.com:8080/git/repo\&.git/objects/d0/49f6c27a2244e12041955e262a404c7faba355
+.fi
+.if n \{\
+.RE
+.\}
+.sp
+An example of a smart request to a catch\-all gateway:
+.sp
+.if n \{\
+.RS 4
+.\}
+.nf
+$GIT_URL:     http://example\&.com/daemon\&.cgi?svc=git&q=
+URL request:  http://example\&.com/daemon\&.cgi?svc=git&q=/info/refs&service=git\-receive\-pack
+.fi
+.if n \{\

+.sp
+.if n \{\
+.RS 4
+.\}
+.nf
+$GIT_URL:     http://example\&.com/git/repo\&.git/path/submodule\&.git
+URL request:  http://example\&.com/git/repo\&.git/path/submodule\&.git/info/refs
+.fi
+.if n \{\
+.RE
+.\}
+.sp
+Clients MUST strip a trailing \fB/\fR, if present, from the user supplied \fB$GIT_URL\fR string to prevent empty path tokens (\fB//\fR) from appearing in any URL sent to a server\&. Compatible clients MUST expand \fB$GIT_URL/info/refs\fR as \fBfoo/info/refs\fR and not \fBfoo//info/refs\fR\&.
+.SH "AUTHENTICATION"
+.sp
+Standard HTTP authentication is used if authentication is required to access a repository, and MAY be configured and enforced by the HTTP server software\&.
+.sp
+Because Git repositories are accessed by standard path components server administrators MAY use directory based permissions within their HTTP server to control repository access\&.
+.sp
+Clients SHOULD support Basic authentication as described by RFC 2617\&. Servers SHOULD support Basic authentication by relying upon the HTTP server placed in front of the Git server software\&.
+.sp
+Servers SHOULD NOT require HTTP cookies for the purposes of authentication or access control\&.
+.sp
+Clients and servers MAY support other common forms of HTTP based authentication, such as Digest authentication\&.
+.SH "SSL"
+.sp
+Clients and servers SHOULD support SSL, particularly to protect passwords when relying on Basic HTTP authentication\&.
+.SH "SESSION STATE"
+.sp
+The Git over HTTP protocol (much like HTTP itself) is stateless from the perspective of the HTTP server side\&. All state MUST be retained and managed by the client process\&. This permits simple round\-robin load\-balancing on the server side, without needing to worry about state management\&.
+.sp
+Clients MUST NOT require state management on the server side in order to function correctly\&.
+.sp
+Servers MUST NOT require HTTP cookies in order to function correctly\&. Clients MAY store and forward HTTP cookies during request processing as described by RFC 2616 (HTTP/1\&.1)\&. Servers SHOULD ignore any cookies sent by a client\&.
+.SH "GENERAL REQUEST PROCESSING"
+.sp
+Except where noted, all standard HTTP behavior SHOULD be assumed by both client and server\&. This includes (but is not necessarily limited to):
+.sp
+If there is no repository at \fB$GIT_URL\fR, or the resource pointed to by a location matching \fB$GIT_URL\fR does not exist, the server MUST NOT respond with \fB200 OK\fR response\&. A server SHOULD respond with \fB404 Not Found\fR, \fB410 Gone\fR, or any other suitable HTTP status code which does not imply the resource exists as requested\&.
+.sp
+If there is a repository at \fB$GIT_URL\fR, but access is not currently permitted, the server MUST respond with the \fB403 Forbidden\fR HTTP status code\&.
+.sp
+Servers SHOULD support both HTTP 1\&.0 and HTTP 1\&.1\&. Servers SHOULD support chunked encoding for both request and response bodies\&.
+.sp
+Clients SHOULD support both HTTP 1\&.0 and HTTP 1\&.1\&. Clients SHOULD support chunked encoding for both request and response bodies\&.
+.sp
+Servers MAY return ETag and/or Last\-Modified headers\&.
+.sp
+Clients MAY revalidate cached entities by including If\-Modified\-Since and/or If\-None\-Match request headers\&.
+.sp
+Servers MAY return \fB304 Not Modified\fR if the relevant headers appear in the request and the entity has not changed\&. Clients MUST treat \fB304 Not Modified\fR identical to \fB200 OK\fR by reusing the cached entity\&.
+.sp
+Clients MAY reuse a cached entity without revalidation if the Cache\-Control and/or Expires header permits caching\&. Clients and servers MUST follow RFC 2616 for cache controls\&.
+.SH "DISCOVERING REFERENCES"
+.sp
+All HTTP clients MUST begin either a fetch or a push exchange by discovering the references available on the remote repository\&.
+.SS "Dumb Clients"
+.sp
+HTTP clients that only support the "dumb" protocol MUST discover references by making a request for the special info/refs file of the repository\&.
+.sp
+Dumb HTTP clients MUST make a \fBGET\fR request to \fB$GIT_URL/info/refs\fR, without any search/query parameters\&.

+.SH "NAME"
+gitprotocol-pack \- How packs are transferred over\-the\-wire
+.SH "SYNOPSIS"
+.sp
+.nf
+<over\-the\-wire\-protocol>
+.fi
+.sp
+.SH "DESCRIPTION"
+.sp
+Git supports transferring data in packfiles over the ssh://, git://, http:// and file:// transports\&. There exist two sets of protocols, one for pushing data from a client to a server and another for fetching data from a server to a client\&. The three transports (ssh, git, file) use the same protocol to transfer data\&. http is documented in \fBgitprotocol-http\fR(5)\&.
+.sp
+The processes invoked in the canonical Git implementation are \fIupload\-pack\fR on the server side and \fIfetch\-pack\fR on the client side for fetching data; then \fIreceive\-pack\fR on the server and \fIsend\-pack\fR on the client for pushing data\&. The protocol functions to have a server tell a client what is currently on the server, then for the two to negotiate the smallest amount of data to send in order to fully update one or the other\&.
+.SH "PKT\-LINE FORMAT"
+.sp
+The descriptions below build on the pkt\-line format described in \fBgitprotocol-common\fR(5)\&. When the grammar indicate \fBPKT\-LINE(\&.\&.\&.)\fR, unless otherwise noted the usual pkt\-line LF rules apply: the sender SHOULD include a LF, but the receiver MUST NOT complain if it is not present\&.
+.sp
+An error packet is a special pkt\-line that contains an error string\&.
+.sp
+.if n \{\
+.RS 4
+.\}
+.nf
+  error\-line     =  PKT\-LINE("ERR" SP explanation\-text)
+.fi
+.if n \{\
+.RE
+.\}
+.sp
+.sp
+Throughout the protocol, where \fBPKT\-LINE(\&.\&.\&.)\fR is expected, an error packet MAY be sent\&. Once this packet is sent by a client or a server, the data transfer process defined in this protocol is terminated\&.
+.SH "TRANSPORTS"
+.sp
+There are three transports over which the packfile protocol is initiated\&. The Git transport is a simple, unauthenticated server that takes the command (almost always \fIupload\-pack\fR, though Git servers can be configured to be globally writable, in which \fIreceive\- pack\fR initiation is also allowed) with which the client wishes to communicate and executes it and connects it to the requesting process\&.
+.sp
+In the SSH transport, the client just runs the \fIupload\-pack\fR or \fIreceive\-pack\fR process on the server over the SSH protocol and then communicates with that invoked process over the SSH connection\&.
+.sp
+The file:// transport runs the \fIupload\-pack\fR or \fIreceive\-pack\fR process locally and communicates with it over a pipe\&.
+.SH "EXTRA PARAMETERS"
+.sp
+The protocol provides a mechanism in which clients can send additional information in its first message to the server\&. These are called "Extra Parameters", and are supported by the Git, SSH, and HTTP protocols\&.
+.sp
+Each Extra Parameter takes the form of \fB<key>=<value>\fR or \fB<key>\fR\&.
+.sp
+Servers that receive any such Extra Parameters MUST ignore all unrecognized keys\&. Currently, the only Extra Parameter recognized is "version" with a value of \fI1\fR or \fI2\fR\&. See \fBgitprotocol-v2\fR(5) for more information on protocol version 2\&.
+.SH "GIT TRANSPORT"
+.sp
+The Git transport starts off by sending the command and repository on the wire using the pkt\-line format, followed by a NUL byte and a hostname parameter, terminated by a NUL byte\&.
+.sp
+.if n \{\
+.RS 4
+.\}
+.nf
+0033git\-upload\-pack /project\&.git\e0host=myserver\&.com\e0
+.fi
+.if n \{\
+.RE
+.\}
+.sp
+The transport may send Extra Parameters by adding an additional NUL byte, and then adding one or more NUL\-terminated strings:
+.sp
+.if n \{\
+.RS 4
+.\}
+.nf
+003egit\-upload\-pack /project\&.git\e0host=myserver\&.com\e0\e0version=1\e0

+.fi
+.if n \{\

+.sp
+host\-parameter is used for the git\-daemon name based virtual hosting\&. See \-\-interpolated\-path option to git daemon, with the %H/%CH format characters\&.
+.sp
+Basically what the Git client is doing to connect to an \fIupload\-pack\fR process on the server side over the Git protocol is this:
+.sp
+.if n \{\
+.RS 4

+.nf
+$ echo \-e \-n \e

+  nc \-v example\&.com 9418
+.fi
+.if n \{\
+.RE
+.\}
+.SH "SSH TRANSPORT"
+.sp
+Initiating the upload\-pack or receive\-pack processes over SSH is executing the binary on the server via SSH remote execution\&. It is basically equivalent to running this:
+.sp
+.if n \{\
+.RS 4
+.\}
+.nf
+$ ssh git\&.example\&.com "git\-upload\-pack \(aq/project\&.git\(aq"
+.fi
+.if n \{\
+.RE
+.\}
+.sp
+For a server to support Git pushing and pulling for a given user over SSH, that user needs to be able to execute one or both of those commands via the SSH shell that they are provided on login\&. On some systems, that shell access is limited to only being able to run those two commands, or even just one of them\&.
+.sp
+In an ssh:// format URI, it\(cqs absolute in the URI, so the \fI/\fR after the host name (or port number) is sent as an argument, which is then read by the remote git\-upload\-pack exactly as is, so it\(cqs effectively an absolute path in the remote filesystem\&.
+.sp
+.if n \{\
+.RS 4
+.\}
+.nf
+   git clone ssh://user@example\&.com/project\&.git
+                |
+                v
+ssh user@example\&.com "git\-upload\-pack \(aq/project\&.git\(aq"
+.fi
+.if n \{\
+.RE
+.\}
+.sp
+In a "user@host:path" format URI, its relative to the user\(cqs home directory, because the Git client will run:
+.sp
+.if n \{\
+.RS 4
+.\}
+.nf
+   git clone user@example\&.com:project\&.git
+                  |
+                  v
+ssh user@example\&.com "git\-upload\-pack \(aqproject\&.git\(aq"
+.fi
+.if n \{\

+.\}
+.sp
+The exception is if a \fI~\fR is used, in which case we execute it without the leading \fI/\fR\&.

+.fi
+.if n \{\
+.RE
+.\}
+.sp
+Depending on the value of the \fBprotocol\&.version\fR configuration variable, Git may attempt to send Extra Parameters as a colon\-separated string in the GIT_PROTOCOL environment variable\&. This is done only if the \fBssh\&.variant\fR configuration variable indicates that the ssh command supports passing environment variables as an argument\&.

+After reference and capabilities discovery, the client can decide to terminate the connection by sending a flush\-pkt, telling the server it can now gracefully terminate, and disconnect, when it does not need any pack data\&. This can happen with the ls\-remote command, and also can happen when the client already is up to date\&.

A depth of 0 is the same as not making a depth request\&. The client does not want to receive any commits beyond this depth, nor does it want objects needed only to complete those commits\&. Commits whose parents are not received as a result are defined as shallow and marked as such in the server\&. This information is sent back to the client in the next step\&.
+.sp
+The client can optionally request that pack\-objects omit various objects from the packfile using one of several filtering techniques\&. These are intended for use with partial clone and partial fetch operations\&. An object that does not meet a filter\-spec value is omitted unless explicitly requested in a \fIwant\fR line\&. See \fBrev\-list\fR for possible filter\-spec values\&.

+.SH "PACKFILE DATA"
+.sp
+Now that the client and server have finished negotiation about what the minimal amount of data that needs to be sent to the client is, the server will construct and send the required data in packfile format\&.
+.sp
+See \fBgitformat-pack\fR(5) for what the packfile itself actually looks like\&.
+.sp
+If \fIside\-band\fR or \fIside\-band\-64k\fR capabilities have been specified by the client, the server will send the packfile data multiplexed\&.
+.sp
+Each packet starting with the packet\-line length of the amount of data that follows, followed by a single byte specifying the sideband the following data is coming in on\&.
+.sp
+In \fIside\-band\fR mode, it will send up to 999 data bytes plus 1 control code, for a total of up to 1000 bytes in a pkt\-line\&. In \fIside\-band\-64k\fR mode it will send up to 65519 data bytes plus 1 control code, for a total of up to 65520 bytes in a pkt\-line\&.
+.sp
+The sideband byte will be a \fI1\fR, \fI2\fR or a \fI3\fR\&. Sideband \fI1\fR will contain packfile data, sideband \fI2\fR will be used for progress information that the client will generally print to stderr and sideband \fI3\fR is used for error information\&.
+.sp
+If no \fIside\-band\fR capability was specified, the server will stream the entire packfile without multiplexing\&.
+.SH "PUSHING DATA TO A SERVER"
+.sp
+Pushing data to a server will invoke the \fIreceive\-pack\fR process on the server, which will allow the client to tell it which references it should update and then send all the data the server will need for those new references to be complete\&. Once all the data is received and validated, the server will then update its references to what the client specified\&.
+.SH "AUTHENTICATION"
+.sp
+The protocol itself contains no authentication mechanisms\&. That is to be handled by the transport, such as SSH, before the \fIreceive\-pack\fR process is invoked\&. If \fIreceive\-pack\fR is configured over the Git transport, those repositories will be writable by anyone who can access that port (9418) as that transport is unauthenticated\&.
+.SH "REFERENCE DISCOVERY"
+.sp
+The reference discovery phase is done nearly the same way as it is in the fetching protocol\&. Each reference obj\-id and name on the server is sent in packet\-line format to the client, followed by a flush\-pkt\&. The only real difference is that the capability listing is different \- the only possible values are \fIreport\-status\fR, \fIreport\-status\-v2\fR, \fIdelete\-refs\fR, \fIofs\-delta\fR, \fIatomic\fR and \fIpush\-options\fR\&.
+.SH "REFERENCE UPDATE REQUEST AND PACKFILE TRANSFER"

For each reference on the server that it wants to update, it sends a line listing the obj\-id currently on the server, the obj\-id the client would like to update it to and the name of the reference\&.

+.RE
+.SH "INITIAL CLIENT REQUEST"
+.sp
+In general a client can request to speak protocol v2 by sending \fBversion=2\fR through the respective side\-channel for the transport being used which inevitably sets \fBGIT_PROTOCOL\fR\&. More information can be found in \fBgitprotocol-pack\fR(5) and \fBgitprotocol-http\fR(5), as well as the \fBGIT_PROTOCOL\fR definition in \fBgit\&.txt\fR\&. In all cases the response from the server is the capability advertisement\&.
+.SS "Git Transport"
+.sp
+When using the git:// transport, you can request to use protocol v2 by sending "version=2" as an extra parameter:
+.sp
+.if n \{\
+.RS 4
+.\}
+.nf
+003egit\-upload\-pack /project\&.git\e0host=myserver\&.com\e0\e0version=2\e0
+.fi
+.if n \{\
+.RE
+.\}
+.SS "SSH and File Transport"
+.sp
+When using either the ssh:// or file:// transport, the GIT_PROTOCOL environment variable must be set explicitly to include "version=2"\&. The server may need to be configured to allow this environment variable to pass\&.
+.SS "HTTP Transport"
+.sp
+When using the http:// or https:// transport a client makes a "smart" info/refs request as described in \fBgitprotocol-http\fR(5) and requests that v2 be used by supplying "version=2" in the \fBGit\-Protocol\fR header\&.
+.sp
+.if n \{\
+.RS 4
+.\}
+.nf
+C: GET $GIT_URL/info/refs?service=git\-upload\-pack HTTP/1\&.0
+C: Git\-Protocol: version=2
+.fi
+.if n \{\
+.RE
+.\}
+.sp
+A v2 server would reply:
+.sp
+.if n \{\
+.RS 4
+.\}
+.nf
+S: 200 OK
+S: <Some headers>
+S: \&.\&.\&.
+S:
+S: 000eversion 2\en
+S: <capability\-advertisement>
+.fi
+.if n \{\
+.RE
+.\}
+.sp
+Subsequent requests are then made directly to the service \fB$GIT_URL/git\-upload\-pack\fR\&. (This works the same for git\-receive\-pack)\&.
+.sp
+Uses the \fB\-\-http\-backend\-info\-refs\fR option to \fBgit-upload-pack\fR(1)\&.
+.sp
+The server may need to be configured to pass this header\(cqs contents via the \fBGIT_PROTOCOL\fR variable\&. See the discussion in \fBgit\-http\-backend\&.txt\fR\&.
+.SH "CAPABILITY ADVERTISEMENT"
+.sp
+A server which decides to communicate (based on a request from a client) using protocol version 2, notifies the client by sending a version string in its initial response followed by an advertisement of its capabilities\&. Each capability is a key with an optional value\&. Clients must ignore all unknown keys\&. Semantics of unknown values are left to the definition of each key\&. Some capabilities will describe commands which can be requested to be executed by the client\&.
+.sp
+.if n \{\
+.RS 4
+.\}
+.nf
+capability\-advertisement = protocol\-version
+                           capability\-list
+                           flush\-pkt
+.fi
+.if n \{\
+.RE
+.\}
+.sp
+.if n \{\
+.RS 4
+.\}
+.nf
+protocol\-version = PKT\-LINE("version 2" LF)
+capability\-list = *capability
+capability = PKT\-LINE(key[=value] LF)
+.fi
+.if n \{\
+.RE
+.\}
+.sp
+.if n \{\
+.RS 4
+.\}
+.nf
+key = 1*(ALPHA | DIGIT | "\-_")
+value = 1*(ALPHA | DIGIT | " \-_\&.,?\e/{}[]()<>!@#$%^&*+=:;")
+.fi
+.if n \{\
+.RE
+.\}
+.SH "COMMAND REQUEST"
+.sp
+After receiving the capability advertisement, a client can then issue a request to select the command it wants with any particular capabilities or arguments\&. There is then an optional section where the client can provide any command specific parameters or queries\&. Only a single command can be requested at a time\&.
+.sp
+.if n \{\
+.RS 4
+.\}
+.nf
+request = empty\-request | command\-request
+empty\-request = flush\-pkt
+command\-request = command
+                  capability\-list
+                  delim\-pkt
+                  command\-args
+                  flush\-pkt
+command = PKT\-LINE("command=" key LF)
+command\-args = *command\-specific\-arg
+.fi
+.if n \{\
+.RE
+.\}
+.sp
+.if n \{\
+.RS 4
+.\}
+.nf
+command\-specific\-args are packet line framed arguments defined by
+each individual command\&.
+.fi
+.if n \{\
+.RE
+.\}
+.sp
+The server will then check to ensure that the client\(cqs request is comprised of a valid command as well as valid capabilities which were advertised\&. If the request is valid the server will then execute the command\&. A server MUST wait till it has received the client\(cqs entire request before issuing a response\&. The format of the response is determined by the command being executed, but in all cases a flush\-pkt indicates the end of the response\&.
+.sp
+When a command has finished, and the client has received the entire response from the server, a client can either request that another command be executed or can terminate the connection\&. A client may optionally send an empty request consisting of just a flush\-pkt to indicate that no more requests will be made\&.
+.SH "CAPABILITIES"
+.sp
+There are two different types of capabilities: normal capabilities, which can be used to convey information or alter the behavior of a request, and commands, which are the core actions that a client wants to perform (fetch, push, etc)\&.
+.sp
+Protocol version 2 is stateless by default\&. This means that all commands must only last a single round and be stateless from the perspective of the server side, unless the client has requested a capability indicating that state should be maintained by the server\&. Clients MUST NOT require state management on the server side in order to function correctly\&. This permits simple round\-robin load\-balancing on the server side, without needing to worry about state management\&.
+.SS "agent"
+.sp
+The server can advertise the \fBagent\fR capability with a value \fBX\fR (in the form \fBagent=X\fR) to notify the client that the server is running version \fBX\fR\&. The client may optionally send its own agent string by including the \fBagent\fR capability with a value \fBY\fR (in the form \fBagent=Y\fR) in its request to the server (but it MUST NOT do so if the server did not advertise the agent capability)\&. The \fBX\fR and \fBY\fR strings may contain any printable ASCII characters except space (i\&.e\&., the byte range 32 < x < 127), and are typically of the form "package/version" (e\&.g\&., "git/1\&.8\&.3\&.1")\&. The agent strings are purely informative for statistics and debugging purposes, and MUST NOT be used to programmatically assume the presence or absence of particular features\&.
+.SS "ls\-refs"
+.sp
+\fBls\-refs\fR is the command used to request a reference advertisement in v2\&. Unlike the current reference advertisement, ls\-refs takes in arguments which can be used to limit the refs sent from the server\&.
+.sp
+Additional features not supported in the base command will be advertised as the value of the command in the capability advertisement in the form of a space separated list of features: "<command>=<feature 1> <feature 2>"
+.sp
+ls\-refs takes in the following arguments:
+.sp
+.if n \{\
+.RS 4
+.\}
+.nf
+symrefs
+    In addition to the object pointed by it, show the underlying ref
+    pointed by it when showing a symbolic ref\&.
+peel
+    Show peeled tags\&.
+ref\-prefix <prefix>
+    When specified, only references having a prefix matching one of
+    the provided prefixes are displayed\&. Multiple instances may be
+    given, in which case references matching any prefix will be
+    shown\&. Note that this is purely for optimization; a server MAY
+    show refs not matching the prefix if it chooses, and clients
+    should filter the result themselves\&.
+.fi
+.if n \{\
+.RE
+.\}
+.sp
+If the \fIunborn\fR feature is advertised the following argument can be included in the client\(cqs request\&.
+.sp
+.if n \{\
+.RS 4
+.\}
+.nf
+unborn
+    The server will send information about HEAD even if it is a symref
+    pointing to an unborn branch in the form "unborn HEAD
+    symref\-target:<target>"\&.
+.fi
+.if n \{\
+.RE
+.\}
+.sp
+The output of ls\-refs is as follows:
+.sp
+.if n \{\

+obj\-id\-or\-unborn = (obj\-id | "unborn")

+ref\-attribute = (symref | peeled)
+symref = "symref\-target:" symref\-target
+peeled = "peeled:" obj\-id
+.fi
+.if n \{\
+.RE
+.\}
+.SS "fetch"
+.sp
+\fBfetch\fR is the command used to fetch a packfile in v2\&. It can be looked at as a modified version of the v1 fetch where the ref\-advertisement is stripped out (since the \fBls\-refs\fR command fills that role) and the message format is tweaked to eliminate redundancies and permit easy addition of future extensions\&.
+.sp
+Additional features not supported in the base command will be advertised as the value of the command in the capability advertisement in the form of a space separated list of features: "<command>=<feature 1> <feature 2>"
+.sp
+A \fBfetch\fR request can take the following arguments:
+.sp
+.if n \{\
+.RS 4
+.\}
+.nf
+want <oid>
+    Indicates to the server an object which the client wants to
+    retrieve\&.  Wants can be anything and are not limited to
+    advertised objects\&.
+.fi
+.if n \{\
+.RE
+.\}
+.sp
+.if n \{\
+.RS 4
+.\}
+.nf
+have <oid>
+    Indicates to the server an object which the client has locally\&.
+    This allows the server to make a packfile which only contains
+    the objects that the client needs\&. Multiple \(aqhave\(aq lines can be
+    supplied\&.
+.fi
+.if n \{\
+.RE
+.\}
+.sp
+.if n \{\
+.RS 4
+.\}
+.nf
+done
+    Indicates to the server that negotiation should terminate (or
+    not even begin if performing a clone) and that the server should
+    use the information supplied in the request to construct the
+    packfile\&.
+.fi
+.if n \{\
+.RE
+.\}
+.sp
+.if n \{\
+.RS 4
+.\}
+.nf
+thin\-pack
+    Request that a thin pack be sent, which is a pack with deltas
+    which reference base objects not contained within the pack (but
+    are known to exist at the receiving end)\&. This can reduce the
+    network traffic significantly, but it requires the receiving end
+    to know how to "thicken" these packs by adding the missing bases
+    to the pack\&.
+.fi
+.if n \{\
+.RE
+.\}
+.sp
+.if n \{\
+.RS 4

+.nf
+no\-progress
+    Request that progress information that would normally be sent on

+The server can advertise the \fBobject\-format\fR capability with a value \fBX\fR (in the form \fBobject\-format=X\fR) to notify the client that the server is able to deal with objects using hash algorithm X\&.
