Re: [msysGit] [PATCH v3 08/14] daemon: use run-command api for async serving

> fork() is only available on POSIX, so to support git-daemon
> on Windows we have to use something else.
>
> Instead we invent the flag --serve, which is a stripped down
> version of --inetd-mode. We use start_command() to call
> git-daemon with this flag appended to serve clients.
