As a kernel developer I learned hard way that breaking user experience by
kernel changes considered a kernel regression, even if userspace "does it
wrong"™. I'm not sure what standard of care for Git users is.

I'm fine adjusting the proxy script and make my colleagues aware about the
issue, but the approach doesn't scale.

I wounder if it's possible to detect the situation, warn the user that
gitproxy has to be fixed and retry fetching pack without closing fd[1].
