From: Linus Torvalds Date: Mon, 12 Sep 2005 18:23:00 GMT Subject: Add note about IANA confirmation Message-ID: The git port (9418) is officially listed by IANA now. So document it. Signed-off-by: Linus Torvalds --- Btw, another thing happened yesterday too: I'm now officially using a packed archive for my core kernel stuff. The format hasn't changed in I-don't-know-how-long, and I can't recall any pack-specific bug either (apart from the obvious lack of support by some of the client-side stuff). Goodie. Me happy. diff --git a/cache.h b/cache.h --- a/cache.h +++ b/cache.h @@ -50,6 +50,17 @@ * Your search - "port 9418" - did not match any documents. * * as www.google.com puts it. + * + * This port has been properly assigned for git use by IANA: + * git (Assigned-9418) [I06-050728-0001]. + * + * git 9418/tcp git pack transfer service + * git 9418/udp git pack transfer service + * + * with Linus Torvalds as the point of + * contact.
