Subject: protocol-caps: add type support to object-info
X-Git-Url: http://git.ipfire.org/gitweb.cgi?a=commitdiff_plain;h=1d8f803eaaa233814209ede881f8257a1ef3a75c;p=thirdparty%2Fgit.git

protocol-caps: add type support to object-info

Teach the server-side object-info handler to accept type as a requested
field. When the client includes type in its object-info request, the
server returns the requested object type.

While touching send_info(), wrap an over-long line and fix the bit field
style of requested_info.size.
