    upload-pack: Do not choke on too many heads request. · e091eb93
    Junio C Hamano 提交于
    Cloning from a repository with more than 256 refs (heads and tags
    included) will choke, because upload-pack has a built-in limit of
    feeding not more than MAX_NEEDS (currently 256) heads to underlying
    git-rev-list.  This is a problem when cloning a repository with many
    tags, like http://www.linux-mips.org/pub/scm/linux.git, which has 290+
    tags.
    
    This commit introduces a new flag, --all, to git-rev-list, to include
    all refs in the repository.  Updated upload-pack detects requests that
    ask more than MAX_NEEDS refs, and sends everything back instead.
    
    We may probably want to tweak the definitions of MAX_NEEDS and
    MAX_HAS, but that is a separate topic.
