[PATCH v2 3/7] transport: rename negotiation_tips

From
Derrick Stolee via GitGitGadget <gitgitgadget@gmail.com>
Date
Apr 15, 2026, 15:14 UTC
Message-ID
<0f89665aee679636d1c6ea801e54b2b53161d4df.1776266066.git.gitgitgadget@gmail.com>
In-Reply-To
<pull.2085.v2.git.1776266066.gitgitgadget@gmail.com>
From: Derrick Stolee <stolee@gmail.com>

The previous change added the --negotiation-restrict synonym for the --negotiation-tips option for 'git fetch'. In anticipation of adding a new option that behaves similarly but with distinct changes to its behavior, rename the internal representation of this data from 'negotiation_tips' to 'negotiation_restrict_tips'.

The 'tips' part is kept because this is an oid_array in the transport layer. This requires the builtin to handle parsing refs into collections of oids so the transport layer can handle this cleaner form of the data.
