Subject: [PATCH] http-backend: Use http.getanyfile to disable dumb HTTP
 serving

Some repository owners may wish to enable smart HTTP, but disallow
dumb content serving.  Disallowing dumb serving might be because
the owners want to rely upon reachability to control which objects
clients may access from the repository, or they just want to
encourage clients to use the more bandwidth efficient transport.

If http.getanyfile is set to false the backend CGI will return with
'403 Forbidden' when an object file is accessed by a dumb client.

 These services can be enabled/disabled using the per-repository
 configuration file:
 
+http.getanyfile::
+	This serves older Git clients which are unable to use the
+	upload pack service.  When enabled, clients are able to read
+	any file within the repository, including objects that are
+	no longer reachable from a branch but are still present.
+	It is enabled by default, but a repository can disable it
+	by setting this configuration item to `false`.

 http.uploadpack::
 	This serves 'git-fetch-pack' and 'git-ls-remote' clients.
