[PATCH RFC] Add support for alternates in HTTP

From: Daniel Barkalow <hidden>
Date: 2016-06-15 22:42:06
Subsystem: the rest · Maintainer: Linus Torvalds

This tries .../objects/info/http-alternates and then
.../objects/info/alternates, looking for a file which specifies where
else to download objects and packs from.

It currently only supports absolute paths, and doesn't support full URLs.

Signed-off-by: Daniel Barkalow <redacted>

This is probably pu material at this point; there's a bit more parsing 
work that ought to get done once there are suitable test cases out there 
for me to try.

It tries to find additional places it should look for things to download. 
What I'd like it to do is:

 Try .../objects/info/http-alternates, which can be a full URL, an 
 absolute path (same server), or a relative path based on the objects 
 directory. This should specify the objects directory, not the base.

 Try .../objects/info/alternates, which can be a relative path as above, 
 or, just in case it works, an absolute path.

Currently implemented are the two absolute path cases, which let me fetch 
from the aegl repository, getting Linus's pack from his repository.
