Fetching Data From a Server
-===========================
+---------------------------
When one Git repository wants to get data that a second repository
has, the first can 'fetch' from the second. This operation determines
$ echo -e -n "0039git-upload-pack /schacon/gitbook.git\0host=example.com\0" |
nc -v example.com 9418

shallow, but is no longer shallow at the currently requested depth
Pushing Data To a Server
-========================
+------------------------
Pushing data to a server will invoke the 'receive-pack' process on the
server, which will allow the client to tell it which references it should
