HTTP transfer protocols
=======================
Git supports two HTTP based transfer protocols. A "dumb" protocol
which requires only a standard HTTP server on the server end of the
connection, and a "smart" protocol which requires a Git aware CGI
(or server module). This document describes both protocols.
As a design feature smart clients can automatically upgrade "dumb"
protocol URLs to smart URLs. This permits all users to have the
same published URL, and the peers automatically select the most
efficient transport available to them.
URL Format
----------
URLs for Git repositories accessed by HTTP use the standard HTTP
URL syntax documented by RFC 1738, so they are of the form:
http://<host>:<port>/<path>?<searchpart>
Within this documentation the placeholder $GIT_URL will stand for
the http:// repository URL entered by the end-user.
Servers SHOULD handle all requests to locations matching $GIT_URL, as
both the "smart" and "dumb" HTTP protocols used by Git operate
by appending additional path components onto the end of the user
supplied $GIT_URL string.
An example of a dumb client requesting for a loose object:
$GIT_URL: http://example.com:8080/git/repo.git
URL request: http://example.com:8080/git/repo.git/objects/d0/49f6c27a2244e12041955e262a404c7faba355
An example of a smart request to a catch-all gateway:
$GIT_URL: http://example.com/daemon.cgi?svc=git&q=
URL request: http://example.com/daemon.cgi?svc=git&q=/info/refs&service=git-receive-pack
An example of a request to a submodule:
$GIT_URL: http://example.com/git/repo.git/path/submodule.git
URL request: http://example.com/git/repo.git/path/submodule.git/info/refs
Clients MUST strip a trailing '/', if present, from the user supplied
$GIT_URL string to prevent empty path tokens ('//') from appearing
in any URL sent to a server. Compatible clients MUST expand
'$GIT_URL/info/refs' as 'foo/info/refs' and not 'foo//info/refs'.
Authentication
--------------
Standard HTTP authentication is used if authentication is required
to access a repository, and MAY be configured and enforced by the
HTTP server software.
Because Git repositories are accessed by standard path components
server administrators MAY use directory based permissions within
their HTTP server to control repository access.
Clients SHOULD support Basic authentication as described by RFC 2616.
Servers SHOULD support Basic authentication by relying upon the
HTTP server placed in front of the Git server software.
Servers SHOULD NOT require HTTP cookies for the purposes of
authentication or access control.
Clients and servers MAY support other common forms of HTTP based
authentication, such as Digest authentication.
SSL
---
Clients and servers SHOULD support SSL, particularly to protect
passwords when relying on Basic HTTP authentication.
Session State
-------------
The Git over HTTP protocol (much like HTTP itself) is stateless
from the perspective of the HTTP server side. All state MUST be
retained and managed by the client process. This permits simple
round-robin load-balancing on the server side, without needing to
worry about state management.
Clients MUST NOT require state management on the server side in
order to function correctly.
Servers MUST NOT require HTTP cookies in order to function correctly.
Clients MAY store and forward HTTP cookies during request processing
as described by RFC 2616 (HTTP/1.1). Servers SHOULD ignore any
cookies sent by a client.
General Request Processing
--------------------------
Except where noted, all standard HTTP behavior SHOULD be assumed
by both client and server. This includes (but is not necessarily
limited to):
If there is no repository at $GIT_URL, or the resource pointed to by a
location matching $GIT_URL does not exist, the server MUST NOT respond
with '200 OK' response. A server SHOULD respond with
'404 Not Found', '410 Gone', or any other suitable HTTP status code
which does not imply the resource exists as requested.
If there is a repository at $GIT_URL, but access is not currently
permitted, the server MUST respond with the '403 Forbidden' HTTP
status code.
Servers SHOULD support both HTTP 1.0 and HTTP 1.1.
Servers SHOULD support chunked encoding for both request and response
bodies.
Clients SHOULD support both HTTP 1.0 and HTTP 1.1.
Clients SHOULD support chunked encoding for both request and response
bodies.
Servers MAY return ETag and/or Last-Modified headers.
Clients MAY revalidate cached entities by including If-Modified-Since
and/or If-None-Match request headers.
Servers MAY return '304 Not Modified' if the relevant headers appear
in the request and the entity has not changed. Clients MUST treat
'304 Not Modified' identical to '200 OK' by reusing the cached entity.
Clients MAY reuse a cached entity without revalidation if the
Cache-Control and/or Expires header permits caching. Clients and
servers MUST follow RFC 2616 for cache controls.
Discovering References
----------------------
All HTTP clients MUST begin either a fetch or a push exchange by
discovering the references available on the remote repository.
Dumb Clients
~~~~~~~~~~~~
HTTP clients that only support the "dumb" protocol MUST discover
references by making a request for the special info/refs file of
the repository.
Dumb HTTP clients MUST make a GET request to $GIT_URL/info/refs,
without any search/query parameters.
C: GET $GIT_URL/info/refs HTTP/1.0
S: 200 OK
S:
S: 95dcfa3633004da0049d3d0fa03f80589cbcaf31 refs/heads/maint
S: d049f6c27a2244e12041955e262a404c7faba355 refs/heads/master
S: 2cb58b79488a98d2721cea644875a8dd0026b115 refs/tags/v1.0
S: a3c2e2402b99163d1d59756e5f207ae21cccba4c refs/tags/v1.0^{}
The Content-Type of the returned info/refs entity SHOULD be
"text/plain; charset=utf-8", but MAY be any content type.
Clients MUST NOT attempt to validate the returned Content-Type.
Dumb servers MUST NOT return a return type starting with
"application/x-git-".
Cache-Control headers MAY be returned to disable caching of the
returned entity.
When examining the response clients SHOULD only examine the HTTP
status code. Valid responses are '200 OK', or '304 Not Modified'.
The returned content is a UNIX formatted text file describing
each ref and its known value. The file SHOULD be sorted by name
according to the C locale ordering. The file SHOULD NOT include
the default ref named 'HEAD'.
info_refs = *( ref_record )
ref_record = any_ref / peeled_ref
any_ref = obj-id HTAB refname LF
peeled_ref = obj-id HTAB refname LF
obj-id HTAB refname "^{}" LF
Smart Clients
~~~~~~~~~~~~~
HTTP clients that support the "smart" protocol (or both the
"smart" and "dumb" protocols) MUST discover references by making
a parameterized request for the info/refs file of the repository.
The request MUST contain exactly one query parameter,
'service=$servicename', where $servicename MUST be the service
name the client wishes to contact to complete the operation.
The request MUST NOT contain additional query parameters.
C: GET $GIT_URL/info/refs?service=git-upload-pack HTTP/1.0

Dumb Server Response
^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^
Dumb servers MUST respond with the dumb server reply format.
See the prior section under dumb clients for a more detailed
description of the dumb server response.
Smart Server Response
^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^
If the server does not recognize the requested service name, or the
requested service name has been disabled by the server administrator,
the server MUST respond with the '403 Forbidden' HTTP status code.
Otherwise, smart servers MUST respond with the smart server reply
format for the requested service name.
Cache-Control headers SHOULD be used to disable caching of the
returned entity.
The Content-Type MUST be 'application/x-$servicename-advertisement'.
Clients SHOULD fall back to the dumb protocol if another content
type is returned. When falling back to the dumb protocol clients
SHOULD NOT make an additional request to $GIT_URL/info/refs, but
instead SHOULD use the response already in hand. Clients MUST NOT
continue if they do not support the dumb protocol.
Clients MUST validate the status code is either '200 OK' or
'304 Not Modified'.
Clients MUST validate the first five bytes of the response entity
matches the regex "^[0-9a-f]{4}#". If this test fails, clients
MUST NOT continue.
Clients MUST parse the entire response as a sequence of pkt-line
records.
Clients MUST verify the first pkt-line is "# service=$servicename".
Servers MUST set $servicename to be the request parameter value.
Servers SHOULD include an LF at the end of this line.
Clients MUST ignore an LF at the end of the line.
Servers MUST terminate the response with the magic "0000" end
pkt-line marker.
The returned response is a pkt-line stream describing each ref and
its known value. The stream SHOULD be sorted by name according to
the C locale ordering. The stream SHOULD include the default ref
named 'HEAD' as the first ref. The stream MUST include capability
declarations behind a NUL on the first ref.
smart_reply = PKT-LINE("# service=$servicename" LF)
ref_list
"0000"
ref_list = empty_list / non_empty_list
empty_list = PKT-LINE(zero-id SP "capabilities^{}" NUL cap-list LF)
non_empty_list = PKT-LINE(obj-id SP name NUL cap_list LF)
*ref_record
cap-list = capability *(SP capability)
capability = 1*(LC_ALPHA / DIGIT / "-" / "_")
LC_ALPHA = %x61-7A
ref_record = any_ref / peeled_ref
any_ref = PKT-LINE(obj-id SP name LF)
peeled_ref = PKT-LINE(obj-id SP name LF)
PKT-LINE(obj-id SP name "^{}" LF
Smart Service git-upload-pack
------------------------------
This service reads from the repository pointed to by $GIT_URL.
Clients MUST first perform ref discovery with
'$GIT_URL/info/refs?service=git-upload-pack'.
C: POST $GIT_URL/git-upload-pack HTTP/1.0
C: Content-Type: application/x-git-upload-pack-request
C:
C: 0032want 0a53e9ddeaddad63ad106860237bbf53411d11a7\n
C: 0032have 441b40d833fdfa93eb2908e52742248faf0ee993\n
C: 0000
S: 200 OK
S: Content-Type: application/x-git-upload-pack-result
S: Cache-Control: no-cache
S:
S: ....ACK %s, continue
S: ....NAK
Clients MUST NOT reuse or revalidate a cached reponse.
Servers MUST include sufficient Cache-Control headers
to prevent caching of the response.
Servers SHOULD support all capabilities defined here.
Clients MUST send at least one 'want' command in the request body.
Clients MUST NOT reference an id in a 'want' command which did not
appear in the response obtained through ref discovery unless the
server advertises capability "allow-tip-sha1-in-want".
compute_request = want_list
have_list
request_end
request_end = "0000" / "done"
want_list = PKT-LINE(want NUL cap_list LF)
*(want_pkt)
want_pkt = PKT-LINE(want LF)
want = "want" SP id
cap_list = *(SP capability) SP
have_list = *PKT-LINE("have" SP id LF)

The Negotiation Algorithm
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
The computation to select the minimal pack proceeds as follows
(c = client, s = server):
init step:
(c) Use ref discovery to obtain the advertised refs.
(c) Place any object seen into set ADVERTISED.
(c) Build an empty set, COMMON, to hold the objects that are later
determined to be on both ends.
(c) Build a set, WANT, of the objects from ADVERTISED the client
wants to fetch, based on what it saw during ref discovery.
(c) Start a queue, C_PENDING, ordered by commit time (popping newest
first). Add all client refs. When a commit is popped from
the queue its parents SHOULD be automatically inserted back.
Commits MUST only enter the queue once.
one compute step:
(c) Send one $GIT_URL/git-upload-pack request:
C: 0032want <WANT #1>...............................
C: 0032want <WANT #2>...............................
....
C: 0032have <COMMON #1>.............................
C: 0032have <COMMON #2>.............................
....
C: 0032have <HAVE #1>...............................
C: 0032have <HAVE #2>...............................
....
C: 0000
The stream is organized into "commands", with each command
appearing by itself in a pkt-line. Within a command line
the text leading up to the first space is the command name,
and the remainder of the line to the first LF is the value.
Command lines are terminated with an LF as the last byte of
the pkt-line value.
Commands MUST appear in the following order, if they appear
at all in the request stream:
* want
* have
The stream is terminated by a pkt-line flush ("0000").
A single "want" or "have" command MUST have one hex formatted
SHA-1 as its value. Multiple SHA-1s MUST be sent by sending
multiple commands.
The HAVE list is created by popping the first 32 commits
from C_PENDING. Less can be supplied if C_PENDING empties.
If the client has sent 256 HAVE commits and has not yet
received one of those back from S_COMMON, or the client has
emptied C_PENDING it SHOULD include a "done" command to let
the server know it won't proceed:
C: 0009done
(s) Parse the git-upload-pack request:
Verify all objects in WANT are directly reachable from refs.
The server MAY walk backwards through history or through
the reflog to permit slightly stale requests.
If no WANT objects are received, send an error:
TODO: Define error if no want lines are requested.
If any WANT object is not reachable, send an error:
TODO: Define error if an invalid want is requested.
Create an empty list, S_COMMON.
If 'have' was sent:
Loop through the objects in the order supplied by the client.
For each object, if the server has the object reachable from
a ref, add it to S_COMMON. If a commit is added to S_COMMON,
do not add any ancestors, even if they also appear in HAVE.
(s) Send the git-upload-pack response:
If the server has found a closed set of objects to pack or the
request ends with "done", it replies with the pack.
TODO: Document the pack based response
S: PACK...
The returned stream is the side-band-64k protocol supported
by the git-upload-pack service, and the pack is embedded into
stream 1. Progress messages from the server side MAY appear
in stream 2.
Here a "closed set of objects" is defined to have at least
one path from every WANT to at least one COMMON object.
If the server needs more information, it replies with a
status continue response:
TODO: Document the non-pack response
(c) Parse the upload-pack response:
TODO: Document parsing response
Do another compute step.
Smart Service git-receive-pack
------------------------------
This service reads from the repository pointed to by $GIT_URL.
Clients MUST first perform ref discovery with
'$GIT_URL/info/refs?service=git-receive-pack'.
