This I assume you're referring to this change in connect.c from [1]:
@@ -729,6 +734,8 @@ struct child_process *git_connect(int fd[2], const
char *url,
conn->use_shell = 1;
}
argv_array_push(&argv, cmd.buf);
+ if (service_flags)
+ argv_array_push(&argv, service_flags);
conn->argv = argv.argv;
if (start_command(conn))
die("unable to fork");
That's not going to work for ssh servers running a stock git-shell and
I haven't seen any updates to shell.c to match. git-shell does not
allow anything other than one argument to be passed to git-upload-pack/
git-receive-pack.
When shell.c calls do_generic_cmd and it calls sq_dequote on its
argument that contains "'dir' 'service-flags'" it's going to return
NULL and shell.c will die("bad argument"). So I don't see how this
supports ssh as-is even if you know in advance the server supports the
new protocol. I don't see any changes to shell.c in that uploadpack2
branch nor in this patch series.
