Shawn O. Pearce c0f093899f http.server: Use TemporaryBuffer and compress some responses 
The HTTP server side code now uses the same approach that the smart
HTTP client code uses when preparing a request body.  The payload
is streamed into a TemporaryBuffer of limited size.  If the entire
data fits, its compressed with gzip if the user agent supports that,
and a Content-Length header is used to transmit the fixed length
body to the peer.  If however the data overflows the limited memory
segment, its streamed uncompressed to the peer.

One might initially think that larger contents which overflow
the buffer should also be compressed, rather than sent raw, since
they were deemed "large".  But usually these larger contents are
actually a pack file which has been already heavily compressed by
Git specific routines.  Trying to deflate that with gzip is probably
going to take up more space, not less, so the compression overhead
isn't worthwhile.

This buffer and compress optimization helps repositories with a
large number of references, as their text based advertisements
compress well. For example jgit's own native repository currently
requires 32,628 bytes for its full advertisement of 489 references.
Most repositories have fewer references, and thus could compress
their entire response in one buffer.

            == Java GIT ==

This package is licensed under the BSD.

  org.eclipse.jgit/

    A pure Java library capable of being run standalone, with no
    additional support libraries.  Some JUnit tests are provided
    to exercise the library.  The library provides functions to
    read and write a GIT formatted repository.

    All portions of jgit are covered by the BSD.  Absolutely no GPL,
    LGPL or EPL contributions are accepted within this package.

  org.eclipse.jgit.test/
    Unit tests for org.eclipse.jgit and the same licensing rules.

            == WARNINGS / CAVEATS              ==

- Symbolic links are not supported because java does not support it.
  Such links could be damaged.

- Only the timestamp of the index is used by jgit check if  the index
  is dirty.

- Don't try the library with a JDK other than 1.6 (Java 6) unless you
  are prepared to investigate problems yourself. JDK 1.5.0_11 and later
  Java 5 versions *may* work. Earlier versions do not. JDK 1.4 is *not*
  supported. Apple's Java 1.5.0_07 is reported to work acceptably. We
  have no information about other vendors. Please report your findings
  if you try.

- CRLF conversion is never performed. On Windows you should thereforc
  make sure your projects and workspaces are configured to save files
  with Unix (LF) line endings.

            == Package Features                ==

  org.eclipse.jgit/

    * Read loose and packed commits, trees, blobs, including
      deltafied objects.

    * Read objects from shared repositories

    * Write loose commits, trees, blobs.

    * Write blobs from local files or Java InputStreams.

    * Read blobs as Java InputStreams.

    * Copy trees to local directory, or local directory to a tree.

    * Lazily loads objects as necessary.

    * Read and write .git/config files.

    * Create a new repository.

    * Read and write refs, including walking through symrefs.

    * Read, update and write the Git index.

    * Checkout in dirty working directory if trivial.

    * Walk the history from a given set of commits looking for commits
      introducing changes in files under a specified path.

    * Object transport
      Fetch via ssh, git, http, Amazon S3 and bundles.
      Push via ssh, git and Amazon S3. JGit does not yet deltify
      the pushed packs so they may be a lot larger than C Git packs.

  org.eclipse.jgit.pgm/

    * Assorted set of command line utilities. Mostly for ad-hoc testing of jgit
      log, glog, fetch etc.

            == Missing Features                ==

There are a lot of missing features. You need the real Git for this.
For some operations it may just be the preferred solution also. There
are not just a command line, there is e.g. git-gui that makes committing
partial files simple.

- Merging. 

- Repacking.

- Generate a GIT format patch.

- Apply a GIT format patch.

- Documentation. :-)

- gitattributes support
  In particular CRLF conversion is not implemented. Files are treated
  as byte sequences.

- submodule support
  Submodules are not supported or even recognized.

            == Support                         ==

  Post question, comments or patches to the git@vger.kernel.org mailing list.


            == Contributing                    ==

  See SUBMITTING_PATCHES in this directory. However, feedback and bug reports
  are also contributions.
