Hi all,
I've been looking into writing a custom Git remote helper. The man page for "gitremote-helpers" states that stateless-connect is used to connect to a Git server using v2 of the wire protocol, but that it is "Experimental; for internal use only." Moreover, the page describing protocol-v2 at https://git-scm.com/docs/protocol-v2 uses future tense, implying that v2 has not yet been finalized. However, the older blog post https://opensource.googleblog.com/2018/05/introducing-git-protocol-version-2.html states that v2 is expected to become part of Git v2.18 (with Git being many versions ahead of v2.18 by now), and my own testing shows that stateless-connect is used when performing Git operations via HTTPS with Github. Could I get some clarification on whether v2 is still experimental and on whether a custom gitremote-helper should declare (and implement) support for stateless-connect?
Thanks,
