While we are on the subject of http user experience, I thought I'd mention this patch to route more errors from index-pack back to the user. We're not doing it yet at GitHub, but I plan to apply it soon.

The first patch is a cleanup and minor bug fix. The second is the interesting one. The third is purely cosmetic, and doesn't need to be tied to the others.

  [1/3]: receive-pack: redirect unpack-objects stdout to /dev/null
  [2/3]: receive-pack: send pack-processing stderr over sideband
  [3/3]: receive-pack: drop "n/a" on unpacker errors
