If we are going in this "in-protocol message switches the service"
route, we should also support "archive" as one of the actions, no?
Yes, I know you named the document "pack-protocol" and "archive"
does not give you packs, but "ls-remote" does not transfer pack data,
either.
I'll add that. Also I need to incorporate shallow in one way or another.
This level of detail may not matter at this point yet, but it is
unclear to me why you have "fetch-shallow" as a separate thing
(while not having "push-shallow"). The current infrastructure does
already allow fetching into shallow repositories witout needing a
separate action that is different from "fetch" (aka "upload-pack").
I would not be surprised if it were "I can deepn you if you want"
capability, but I do not understand why you are singling out
"shallow" as something that needs such a special treatment.

Right, this should have been done via plain fetch action but the mode parameter
may be set to shallow,narrow or what we want. Sorry for my shortcut in thinking
there.

I should not have done that. I just got confused.
