31e8595a11 receive-pack: new config receive.procReceiveRefs
Add a new multi-valued config variable "receive.procReceiveRefs"
for `receive-pack` command, like the follows:

    git config --system --add receive.procReceiveRefs refs/for
    git config --system --add receive.procReceiveRefs refs/drafts

If the specific prefix strings given by the config variables match the
reference names of the commands which are sent from git client to
`receive-pack`, these commands will be executed by an external hook
(named "proc-receive"), instead of the internal `execute_commands`
function.

For example, if it is set to "refs/for", pushing to a reference such as
"refs/for/master" will not create or update reference "refs/for/master",
but may create or update a pull request directly by running the hook
"proc-receive".

Optional modifiers can be provided in the beginning of the value to
filter commands for specific actions: create (a), modify (m),
delete (d). A `!` can be included in the modifiers to negate the
reference prefix entry. E.g.:

    git config --system --add receive.procReceiveRefs ad:refs/heads
    git config --system --add receive.procReceiveRefs !:refs/heads

63518a574a New capability "report-status-v2" for git-push
The new introduced "proc-receive" hook may handle a command for a
pseudo-reference with a zero-old as its old-oid, while the hook may
create or update a reference with different name, different new-oid,
and different old-oid (the reference may exist already with a non-zero
old-oid).  Current "report-status" protocol cannot report the status for
such reference rewrite.

Add new capability "report-status-v2" and new report protocol which is
not backward compatible for report of git-push.

If a user pushes to a pseudo-reference "refs/for/master/topic", and
"receive-pack" creates two new references "refs/changes/23/123/1" and
"refs/changes/24/124/1", for client without the knowledge of
"report-status-v2", "receive-pack" will only send "ok/ng" directives in
the report, such as:

    ok ref/for/master/topic

But for client which has the knowledge of "report-status-v2",
"receive-pack" will use "option" directives to report more attributes
for the reference given by the above "ok/ng" directive.

    ok refs/for/master/topic
    option refname refs/changes/23/123/1
    option new-oid <new-oid>
    ok refs/for/master/topic
    option refname refs/changes/24/124/1
    option new-oid <new-oid>

The client will report two new created references to the end user.
