+ # configuration with authentication required only when downloading
+ # objects and not refs, by having the HTTP server only require
+ # authentication for the "git-upload-pack" path and not "info/refs".
+ # This is not possible with protocol v2, since both objects and refs
+ # are obtained from the "git-upload-pack" path. A solution to this is
+ # to teach the server and client to be able to inline ls-refs requests
+ # as an Extra Parameter (see pack-protocol.txt), so that "info/refs"
+ # can serve refs, just like it does in protocol v0.
