Revision 48d23c12e7329213e0dfd73bbffc6ad05efcaf9d authored by Junio C Hamano on 17 January 2017, 23:19:03 UTC, committed by Junio C Hamano on 17 January 2017, 23:19:03 UTC
When the http server gives an incomplete response to a smart-http
rpc call, it could lead to client waiting for a full response that
will never come.  Teach the client side to notice this condition
and abort the transfer.

An improvement counterproposal has failed.
