This is so gratutious and pointless. It's a shame that everything we
learned about Unix portability and the importance of standards has been
thrown out the window by these guys.
Noticed that when pairing, sometimes both sides start to push, and the other
side sends a PushRequest, and the two deadlock, neither doing anything.
(Timeout eventually breaks this.) So, let both run at the same time.
I decided to use the fallback push mode from the beginning for XMPP, since
while it uses some ugly branches, it avoids the possibility of a normal
push failing, and needing to pull and re-push. Due to the overhead of XMPP,
and the difficulty of building such a chain of actions due to the async
implementation, this seemed reasonable.
It seems to work great!
XMPP has no defined message size limits, but some servers will have ad-hoc
limits. However, 4k seems safe, even after the additional bloat of base64.
That should not exceed 8k.
Inject the required git-remote-xmpp into PATH when running xmpp git push.
Rest of the time it will not be in PATH, and git won't be able to talk to
xmpp remotes.
It might even work, although nothing yet triggers XMPP pushes.
Also added a set of deferred push messages. Only one push can run at a
time, and unrelated push messages get deferred. The set will never grow
very large, because it only puts two types of messages in there, that
can only vary in the client doing the push.
Maybe the spec allows it, but broadcasting self-directed presence info to
all buddies is just insane.
I had to bring back the IQ messages for self-pairing, while still using
directed presence for other pairing. Ugly.
