6f48d39 (clone: delay cloning until after remote HEAD checking - 2012-01-16) allows us to perform some checks on remote refs before the actual cloning happens. But not all transport types support this. Remote helper with "import" capability will not return complete ref information until fetch is performed and therefore the clone cannot be delayed. foreign_vcs field in struct remote was used to detect this kind of transport and save the result. This is a mistake because foreign_vcs is designed to override url-based transport detection. As a result, if the same "struct transport *" object is used on many different urls and one of them attached remote transport, the following urls will be mistakenly attached to the same transport. This fault is worked around by dad0b3d (push: do not let configured foreign-vcs permanently clobbered - 2012-01-23) To fix this, detect incomplete refs from transport_get_remote_refs() by SHA-1. Incomplete ones must have null SHA-1 (*). Then revert changes related to foreign_cvs field in 6f48d39 and dad0b3d. A good thing from this change is that cloning smart http transport can also be delayed. Earlier it falls into the same category "remote transport, no delay". (*) Theoretically if one of the remote refs happens to have null SHA-1, it will trigger false alarm and the clone will not be delayed. But that chance may be too small for us to pay attention to.

GIT - the stupid content tracker
////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////
"git" can mean anything, depending on your mood.
- random three-letter combination that is pronounceable, and not
actually used by any common UNIX command. The fact that it is a
mispronunciation of "get" may or may not be relevant.
- stupid. contemptible and despicable. simple. Take your pick from the
dictionary of slang.
- "global information tracker": you're in a good mood, and it actually
works for you. Angels sing, and a light suddenly fills the room.
- "goddamn idiotic truckload of sh*t": when it breaks
Git is a fast, scalable, distributed revision control system with an
unusually rich command set that provides both high-level operations
and full access to internals.
Git is an Open Source project covered by the GNU General Public License.
It was originally written by Linus Torvalds with help of a group of
hackers around the net. It is currently maintained by Junio C Hamano.
Please read the file INSTALL for installation instructions.
See Documentation/gittutorial.txt to get started, then see
Documentation/everyday.txt for a useful minimum set of commands, and
Documentation/git-commandname.txt for documentation of each command.
If git has been correctly installed, then the tutorial can also be
read with "man gittutorial" or "git help tutorial", and the
documentation of each command with "man git-commandname" or "git help
commandname".
CVS users may also want to read Documentation/gitcvs-migration.txt
("man gitcvs-migration" or "git help cvs-migration" if git is
installed).
Many Git online resources are accessible from http://git-scm.com/
including full documentation and Git related tools.
The user discussion and development of Git take place on the Git
mailing list -- everyone is welcome to post bug reports, feature
requests, comments and patches to git@vger.kernel.org. To subscribe
to the list, send an email with just "subscribe git" in the body to
majordomo@vger.kernel.org. The mailing list archives are available at
http://marc.theaimsgroup.com/?l=git and other archival sites.
The messages titled "A note from the maintainer", "What's in
git.git (stable)" and "What's cooking in git.git (topics)" and
the discussion following them on the mailing list give a good
reference for project status, development direction and
remaining tasks.
