Re: [PATCH 1/7] upload-pack: fix transfer.hiderefs over smart-http

> When upload-pack advertises the refs (either for a normal,
> non-stateless request, or for the initial contact in a
> stateless one), we call for_each_ref with the send_ref
> function as its callback. send_ref, in turn, calls
> mark_our_ref, which checks whether the ref is hidden, and
> sets OUR_REF or HIDDEN_REF on the object as appropriate.  If
> it is hidden, mark_our_ref also returns "1" to signal
> send_ref that the ref should not be advertised.
