From: Taylor Blau Date: Mon, 13 Jul 2026 01:12:07 +0000 (-0700) Subject: send-pack: honor `no-ref-delta` capability X-Git-Url: http://git.ipfire.org/gitweb.cgi?a=commitdiff_plain;h=90202ce6e1da1d8fe46fdb7a1ccd1dd2d598b70c;p=thirdparty%2Fgit.git send-pack: honor `no-ref-delta` capability Add a 'no-ref-delta' receive-pack capability and teach send-pack to pass '--no-ref-delta' to 'pack-objects' when the server advertises it. Keep this separate from 'ofs-delta' so that a server may request that `send-pack` omit `REF_DELTA` without also accepting `OFS_DELTA`.
