[PATCH 0/9] transport-helper: a bunch of improvements

Hi,

After these remote helpers that use 'export' are able to do everything:

 1) push --dry-run
 2) push --force
 2.1) report which branches were forced
 3) push old:new
 4) push :to-delete

I know these won't be applied, which is too bad for the users, which could enjoy these features, which are implemented properly, with documentation, tests, and everything.

Sorry users, I don't have Jedi powers to convince Git developers of what's actually good.

Felipe Contreras (9):
  transport-helper: check if the dry-run is supported
  transport-helper: add 'force' to 'export' helpers
  transport-helper: check for 'forced update' message
  fast-export: improve argument parsing
  fast-export: add new --refspec option
  transport-helper: add support for old:new refspec
  fast-import: add support to delete refs
  fast-export: add support to delete refs
  transport-helper: add support to delete branches
