 SERVICES
 --------
 
+These services can be globally enabled/disabled using the
+command line options of this command.  If a finer-grained
+control is desired (e.g. to allow `git-archive` to be run
+against only in a few selected repositories the daemon serves),
+the per-repository configuration file can be used to enable or
+disable them.

-       This serves `git-fetch-pack` and `git-peek-remote`
+       This serves `git-fetch-pack` and `git-ls-remote`
        clients.  It is enabled by default, but a repository can
        disable it by setting `daemon.uploadpack` configuration
        item to `false`.
 
 upload-archive::

+       This serves `git-archive --remote`.  It is disabled by
+       default, but a repository can enable it by setting

+
+receive-pack::
+       This serves `git-send-pack` clients, allowing anonymous
+       push.  It is disabled by default, as there is _no_
+       authentication in the protocol (in other words, anybody
+       can push anything into the repository, including removal
+       of refs).  This is solely meant for a closed LAN setting
+       where everybody is friendly.  This service can be
+       enabled by `daemon.receivepack` configuration item to
