This is Daniel's fetch-pack in C plus fixups from Shawn.
Unfortunately the fixups breaks t3200 ("*** glibc detected ***
fetch: free(): invalid pointer xxx ***"), which I haven't looked
into yet.
Doesn't crash out on my Mac OS X system but I am getting the
above failure on my amd64 Linux system.  I'm debugging it now.
I'll have to quit in about an hour and pick it up later, so don't
expect a patch immediately.  But I'll certainly send something soon.
Clearly I made a change in my fixups that I shouldn't have.  ;-)

OK, so in addition to the above fixups Junio mentions I have
also sent two more series today:

  2 patch "fixup of the fixup" to resolve the t3200 crash
  5 patch "fixup + cleanup" of http support

and now I just discovered that pushing to yourself is probably also
broken by this series:

  $ git push . jc/maint:gfi-maint
  updating 'refs/heads/gfi-maint' using 'refs/remotes/jc/maint'
    from 05cc2ffc572f05e8aeec495a9ab9bc9609863491
    to   8419d2ee9ba8b375186a5c1019df8dfbce610aba
  Also local refs/heads/gfi-maint

What's really exciting is we actually updated the ref 'gfi-maint',
even though it was "ng" and we failed to push.  Yup.  More work
for me to look at tomorrow.  Right now I think I'm all memory
corruptioned out for *** brain detected *** Shawn(): nextword():

With all of my fixups applied I took some performance measurements
today from two of my larger day-job repositories:

  A.git (356 branches):
    Current Fetch             New "Builtin" Fetch
    ------------------        --------------------
    real    3m19.921s         real    0m9.969s
    user    1m58.050s         user    0m1.449s
    sys     2m4.747s          sys     0m4.465s

  B.git (24 branches):
    Current Fetch             New "Builtin" Fetch
    ------------------        --------------------
    real    0m21.250s         real    0m4.735s
    user    0m10.981s         user    0m0.510s
    sys     0m12.387s         sys     0m1.481s

All runs were a no-op fetch over SSH on the LAN.  The system running
git-fetch was a Cygwin/Windows 2000 box and the server was Solaris 9.
Just starting an SSH connection (`ssh solsrv echo hi`) takes me on
average 1 second so a 4.7s no-op fetch on the smaller repository
is very respectable.

3m19s vs. 9s?  I'll take 9s, thankyouverymuch.  Even if I have
more testing and debugging to do.  Especially since the two repos
above are only a sampling of the actual set I have to deal with on
a daily basis.
