| <h2 id="_description">DESCRIPTION</h2> |
| <div class="sectionbody"> |
| <div class="paragraph"> |
| <p>Git supports two HTTP based transfer protocols. A "dumb" protocol |
| which requires only a standard HTTP server on the server end of the |
| connection, and a "smart" protocol which requires a Git aware CGI |
| (or server module). This document describes both protocols.</p> |
| </div> |
| <div class="paragraph"> |
| <p>As a design feature smart clients can automatically upgrade "dumb" |
| protocol URLs to smart URLs. This permits all users to have the |
| same published URL, and the peers automatically select the most |
| efficient transport available to them.</p> |
| </div> |
| </div> |
| </div> |
| <div class="sect1"> |
| <h2 id="_url_format">URL Format</h2> |
| <div class="sectionbody"> |
| <div class="paragraph"> |
| <p>URLs for Git repositories accessed by HTTP use the standard HTTP |
| URL syntax documented by RFC 1738, so they are of the form:</p> |
| </div> |
| <div class="literalblock"> |
| <div class="content"> |
| <pre>http://<host>:<port>/<path>?<searchpart></pre> |
| </div> |
| </div> |
| <div class="paragraph"> |
| <p>Within this documentation the placeholder <code>$GIT_URL</code> will stand for |
| the http:// repository URL entered by the end-user.</p> |
| </div> |
| <div class="paragraph"> |
| <p>Servers SHOULD handle all requests to locations matching <code>$GIT_URL</code>, as |
| both the "smart" and "dumb" HTTP protocols used by Git operate |
| by appending additional path components onto the end of the user |
| supplied <code>$GIT_URL</code> string.</p> |
| </div> |
| <div class="paragraph"> |
| <p>An example of a dumb client requesting a loose object:</p> |
| </div> |
| <div class="literalblock"> |
| <div class="content"> |
| <pre>$GIT_URL: http://example.com:8080/git/repo.git |

| </div> |
| </div> |
| <div class="paragraph"> |
| <p>An example of a smart request to a catch-all gateway:</p> |
| </div> |
| <div class="literalblock"> |

| URL request: http://example.com/git/repo.git/path/submodule.git/info/refs</pre> |
| </div> |
| </div> |
| <div class="paragraph"> |
| <p>Clients MUST strip a trailing <code>/</code>, if present, from the user supplied |
| <code>$GIT_URL</code> string to prevent empty path tokens (<code>//</code>) from appearing |
| in any URL sent to a server. Compatible clients MUST expand |
| <code>$GIT_URL/info/refs</code> as <code>foo/info/refs</code> and not <code>foo//info/refs</code>.</p> |
| </div> |
| </div> |
| </div> |
| <div class="sect1"> |
| <h2 id="_authentication">Authentication</h2> |
| <div class="sectionbody"> |
| <div class="paragraph"> |
| <p>Standard HTTP authentication is used if authentication is required |
| to access a repository, and MAY be configured and enforced by the |
| HTTP server software.</p> |
| </div> |
| <div class="paragraph"> |
| <p>Because Git repositories are accessed by standard path components |
| server administrators MAY use directory based permissions within |
| their HTTP server to control repository access.</p> |
| </div> |
| <div class="paragraph"> |
| <p>Clients SHOULD support Basic authentication as described by RFC 2617. |
| Servers SHOULD support Basic authentication by relying upon the |
| HTTP server placed in front of the Git server software.</p> |
| </div> |
| <div class="paragraph"> |
| <p>Servers SHOULD NOT require HTTP cookies for the purposes of |
| authentication or access control.</p> |
| </div> |
| <div class="paragraph"> |
| <p>Clients and servers MAY support other common forms of HTTP based |
| authentication, such as Digest authentication.</p> |
| </div> |
| </div> |
| </div> |
| <div class="sect1"> |
| <h2 id="_ssl">SSL</h2> |
| <div class="sectionbody"> |
| <div class="paragraph"> |
| <p>Clients and servers SHOULD support SSL, particularly to protect |
| passwords when relying on Basic HTTP authentication.</p> |
| </div> |
| </div> |
| </div> |
| <div class="sect1"> |
| <h2 id="_session_state">Session State</h2> |
| <div class="sectionbody"> |
| <div class="paragraph"> |
| <p>The Git over HTTP protocol (much like HTTP itself) is stateless |
| from the perspective of the HTTP server side. All state MUST be |
| retained and managed by the client process. This permits simple |
| round-robin load-balancing on the server side, without needing to |
| worry about state management.</p> |
| </div> |
| <div class="paragraph"> |
| <p>Clients MUST NOT require state management on the server side in |
| order to function correctly.</p> |
| </div> |
| <div class="paragraph"> |
| <p>Servers MUST NOT require HTTP cookies in order to function correctly. |
| Clients MAY store and forward HTTP cookies during request processing |
| as described by RFC 2616 (HTTP/1.1). Servers SHOULD ignore any |
| cookies sent by a client.</p> |
| </div> |
| </div> |
| </div> |
| <div class="sect1"> |
| <h2 id="_general_request_processing">General Request Processing</h2> |
| <div class="sectionbody"> |
| <div class="paragraph"> |
| <p>Except where noted, all standard HTTP behavior SHOULD be assumed |
| by both client and server. This includes (but is not necessarily |
| limited to):</p> |
| </div> |
| <div class="paragraph"> |
| <p>If there is no repository at <code>$GIT_URL</code>, or the resource pointed to by a |
| location matching <code>$GIT_URL</code> does not exist, the server MUST NOT respond |
| with <code>200</code> <code>OK</code> response. A server SHOULD respond with |
| <code>404</code> <code>Not</code> <code>Found</code>, <code>410</code> <code>Gone</code>, or any other suitable HTTP status code |
| which does not imply the resource exists as requested.</p> |
| </div> |
| <div class="paragraph"> |
| <p>If there is a repository at <code>$GIT_URL</code>, but access is not currently |
| permitted, the server MUST respond with the <code>403</code> <code>Forbidden</code> HTTP |
| status code.</p> |
| </div> |
| <div class="paragraph"> |
| <p>Servers SHOULD support both HTTP 1.0 and HTTP 1.1. |
| Servers SHOULD support chunked encoding for both request and response |
| bodies.</p> |
| </div> |
| <div class="paragraph"> |
| <p>Clients SHOULD support both HTTP 1.0 and HTTP 1.1. |
| Clients SHOULD support chunked encoding for both request and response |

| <p>Servers MAY return ETag and/or Last-Modified headers.</p> |
| </div> |
| <div class="paragraph"> |
| <p>Clients MAY revalidate cached entities by including If-Modified-Since |
| and/or If-None-Match request headers.</p> |
| </div> |
| <div class="paragraph"> |
| <p>Servers MAY return <code>304</code> <code>Not</code> <code>Modified</code> if the relevant headers appear |
| in the request and the entity has not changed. Clients MUST treat |
| <code>304</code> <code>Not</code> <code>Modified</code> identical to <code>200</code> <code>OK</code> by reusing the cached entity.</p> |
| </div> |
| <div class="paragraph"> |
| <p>Clients MAY reuse a cached entity without revalidation if the |
| Cache-Control and/or Expires header permits caching. Clients and |
| servers MUST follow RFC 2616 for cache controls.</p> |

| <h2 id="_discovering_references">Discovering References</h2> |
| <div class="sectionbody"> |
