Jonathan Tan	cbe566a071	negotiator/noop: add noop fetch negotiator ... Add a noop fetch negotiator. This is introduced to allow partial clones to skip the unneeded negotiation step when fetching missing objects using a "git fetch" subprocess. (The implementation of spawning a "git fetch" subprocess will be done in a subsequent patch.) But this can also be useful for end users, e.g. as a blunt fix for object corruption.

Junio C Hamano	7c85ee6c58	Merge branch 'jt/fetch-negotiator-skipping' ... Add a server-side knob to skip commits in exponential/fibbonacci stride in an attempt to cover wider swath of history with a smaller number of iterations, potentially accepting a larger packfile transfer, instead of going back one commit a time during common ancestor discovery during the "git fetch" transaction. * jt/fetch-negotiator-skipping: negotiator/skipping: skip commits during fetch	2018-08-02 15:30:46 -07:00

Jonathan Tan	42cc7485a2	negotiator/skipping: skip commits during fetch ... Introduce a new negotiation algorithm used during fetch that skips commits in an effort to find common ancestors faster. The skips grow similarly to the Fibonacci sequence as the commit walk proceeds further away from the tips. The skips may cause unnecessary commits to be included in the packfile, but the negotiation step typically ends more quickly. Usage of this algorithm is guarded behind the configuration flag fetch.negotiationAlgorithm.

Jonathan Tan	ec06283844	fetch-pack: introduce negotiator API ... Introduce the new files fetch-negotiator.{h,c}, which contains an API behind which the details of negotiation are abstracted. Currently, only one algorithm is available: the existing one. This patch is written to be easily reviewed: static functions are moved verbatim from fetch-pack.c to negotiator/default.c, and it can be seen that the lines replaced by negotiator->X() calls are present in the X() functions respectively.
