Subject: remote-curl: retry failed requests for auth even with gzip
X-Git-Url: http://git.tremily.us/?a=commitdiff_plain;h=2e736fd5e94c6fa44ba95d81a5b0ae407b968b78;p=git.git

remote-curl: retry failed requests for auth even with gzip

Commit b81401c taught the post_rpc function to retry the
http request after prompting for credentials. However, it
did not handle two cases:

  1. If we have a large request, we do not retry. That's OK,
     since we would have sent a probe (with retry) already.

  2. If we are gzipping the request, we do not retry. That
     was considered OK, because the intended use was for
     push (e.g., listing refs is OK, but actually pushing
     objects is not), and we never gzip on push.

This patch teaches post_rpc to retry even a gzipped request.
This has two advantages:

  1. It is possible to configure a "half-auth" state for
     fetching, where the set of refs and their sha1s are
     advertised, but one cannot actually fetch objects.

     This is not a recommended configuration, as it leaks
     some information about what is in the repository (e.g.,
     an attacker can try brute-forcing possible content in
     your repository and checking whether it matches your
     branch sha1). However, it can be slightly more
     convenient, since a no-op fetch will not require a
     password at all.

  2. It future-proofs us should we decide to ever gzip more
     requests.
