[PATCHv4 3/4] Support ref namespaces for remote repositories via upload-pack and receive-pack

From
Jamey Sharp <jamey@minilop.net>
Date

Message-ID
<1306887870-3875-3-git-send-email-jamey@minilop.net>

<1306887870-3875-1-git-send-email-jamey@minilop.net>
From: Josh Triplett <josh@joshtriplett.org>

Change upload-pack and receive-pack to use the namespace-prefixed refs when working with the repository, and use the unprefixed refs when talking to the client, maintaining the masquerade. This allows clone, pull, fetch, and push to work with a suitably configured GIT_NAMESPACE.

With appropriate configuration, this also allows http-backend to expose namespaces as multiple repositories with different paths. This only requires setting GIT_NAMESPACE, which http-backend passes through to upload-pack and receive-pack.

This patch is not that different from v3, but now uses general
infrastructure from refs.c introduced in patch 2/4.
