internals: extract wire protocol version 2 commands to standalone doc

wireprotocol.txt is a bit long and unwieldy. I think splitting it up
will help aid comprehension.

Let's start by extracting wire protocol version 2 commands to a
standalone document.

As part of the port, I munged with the section titles a bit and
expanded the TODO around node namespaces.

-Frame-Based Protocol Commands
-=============================
-
-**Experimental and under active development**
-
-This section documents the wire protocol commands exposed to transports
-using the frame-based protocol. The set of commands exposed through
-these transports is distinct from the set of commands exposed to legacy
-transports.
-
-The frame-based protocol uses CBOR to encode command execution requests.
-All command arguments must be mapped to a specific or set of CBOR data
-types.
-
-The response to many commands is also CBOR. There is no common response
-format: each command defines its own response format.
-
-TODO require node type be specified, as N bytes of binary node value
-could be ambiguous once SHA-1 is replaced.
-
-branchmap
----------
-
-Obtain heads in named branches.
-
-Receives no arguments.
-
-The response is a map with bytestring keys defining the branch name.
-Values are arrays of bytestring defining raw changeset nodes.
-
-capabilities
-------------
-
-Obtain the server's capabilities.
-
-Receives no arguments.
-
-This command is typically called only as part of the handshake during
-initial connection establishment.
-
-The response is a map with bytestring keys defining server information.
-
-The defined keys are:
-
-commands
-   A map defining available wire protocol commands on this server.
-
-   Keys in the map are the names of commands that can be invoked. Values
-   are maps defining information about that command. The bytestring keys
-   are:
-
-      args
-         A map of argument names and their expected types.
-
-         Types are defined as a representative value for the expected type.
-         e.g. an argument expecting a boolean type will have its value
-         set to true. An integer type will have its value set to 42. The
-         actual values are arbitrary and may not have meaning.
-      permissions
-         An array of permissions required to execute this command.
-
-compression
-   An array of maps defining available compression format support.
-
-   The array is sorted from most preferred to least preferred.
-
-   Each entry has the following bytestring keys:
-
-      name
-         Name of the compression engine. e.g. ``zstd`` or ``zlib``.
-
-framingmediatypes
-   An array of bytestrings defining the supported framing protocol
-   media types. Servers will not accept media types not in this list.
-
-rawrepoformats
-   An array of storage formats the repository is using. This set of
-   requirements can be used to determine whether a client can read a
-   *raw* copy of file data available.
-
-heads
------
-
-Obtain DAG heads in the repository.
-
-The command accepts the following arguments:
-
-publiconly (optional)
-   (boolean) If set, operate on the DAG for public phase changesets only.
-   Non-public (i.e. draft) phase DAG heads will not be returned.
-
-The response is a CBOR array of bytestrings defining changeset nodes
-of DAG heads. The array can be empty if the repository is empty or no
-changesets satisfied the request.
-
-TODO consider exposing phase of heads in response
-
-known
------
-
-Determine whether a series of changeset nodes is known to the server.
-
-The command accepts the following arguments:
-
-nodes
-   (array of bytestrings) List of changeset nodes whose presence to
-   query.
-
-The response is a bytestring where each byte contains a 0 or 1 for the
-corresponding requested node at the same index.
-
-TODO use a bit array for even more compact response
-
-listkeys
---------
-
-List values in a specified ``pushkey`` namespace.
-
-The command receives the following arguments:
-
-namespace
-   (bytestring) Pushkey namespace to query.
-
-The response is a map with bytestring keys and values.
-
-TODO consider using binary to represent nodes in certain pushkey namespaces.
-
-lookup
-------
-
-Try to resolve a value to a changeset revision.
-
-Unlike ``known`` which operates on changeset nodes, lookup operates on
-node fragments and other names that a user may use.
-
-The command receives the following arguments:
-
-key
-   (bytestring) Value to try to resolve.
-
-On success, returns a bytestring containing the resolved node.
-
-pushkey
--------
-
-Set a value using the ``pushkey`` protocol.
-
-The command receives the following arguments:
-
-namespace
-   (bytestring) Pushkey namespace to operate on.
-key
-   (bytestring) The pushkey key to set.
-old
-   (bytestring) Old value for this key.
-new
-   (bytestring) New value for this key.
-
-TODO consider using binary to represent nodes is certain pushkey namespaces.
-TODO better define response type and meaning.

-The Mercurial wire protocol is a request-response based protocol
-with multiple wire representations.
-
-Each request is modeled as a command name, a dictionary of arguments, and
-optional raw input. Command arguments and their types are intrinsic
-properties of commands. So is the response type of the command. This means
-clients can't always send arbitrary arguments to servers and servers can't
-return multiple response types.
-
-The protocol is synchronous and does not support multiplexing (concurrent
-commands).
-
-Handshake
-=========
-
-It is required or common for clients to perform a *handshake* when connecting
-to a server. The handshake serves the following purposes:
-
-* Negotiating protocol/transport level options
-* Allows the client to learn about server capabilities to influence
-  future requests
-* Ensures the underlying transport channel is in a *clean* state
-
-An important goal of the handshake is to allow clients to use more modern
-wire protocol features. By default, clients must assume they are talking
-to an old version of Mercurial server (possibly even the very first
-implementation). So, clients should not attempt to call or utilize modern
-wire protocol features until they have confirmation that the server
-supports them. The handshake implementation is designed to allow both
-ends to utilize the latest set of features and capabilities with as
-few round trips as possible.
-
-The handshake mechanism varies by transport and protocol and is documented
-in the sections below.
-
-HTTP Protocol
-=============
-
-Handshake
----------
-
-The client sends a ``capabilities`` command request (``?cmd=capabilities``)
-as soon as HTTP requests may be issued.
-
-By default, the server responds with a version 1 capabilities string, which
-the client parses to learn about the server's abilities. The ``Content-Type``
-for this response is ``application/mercurial-0.1`` or
-``application/mercurial-0.2`` depending on whether the client advertised
-support for version ``0.2`` in its request. (Clients aren't supposed to
-advertise support for ``0.2`` until the capabilities response indicates
-the server's support for that media type. However, a client could
-conceivably cache this metadata and issue the capabilities request in such
-a way to elicit an ``application/mercurial-0.2`` response.)
-
-Clients wishing to switch to a newer API service may send an
-``X-HgUpgrade-<X>`` header containing a space-delimited list of API service
-names the client is capable of speaking. The request MUST also include an
-``X-HgProto-<X>`` header advertising a known serialization format for the
-response. ``cbor`` is currently the only defined serialization format.
-
-If the request contains these headers, the response ``Content-Type`` MAY
-be for a different media type. e.g. ``application/mercurial-cbor`` if the
-client advertises support for CBOR.
-
-The response MUST be deserializable to a map with the following keys:
-
-apibase
-   URL path to API services, relative to the repository root. e.g. ``api/``.
-
-apis
-   A map of API service names to API descriptors. An API descriptor contains
-   more details about that API. In the case of the HTTP Version 2 Transport,
-   it will be the normal response to a ``capabilities`` command.
-
-   Only the services advertised by the client that are also available on
-   the server are advertised.
-
-v1capabilities
-   The capabilities string that would be returned by a version 1 response.
-
-The client can then inspect the server-advertised APIs and decide which
-API to use, including continuing to use the HTTP Version 1 Transport.
-
-HTTP Version 1 Transport
-------------------------
-
-Commands are issued as HTTP/1.0 or HTTP/1.1 requests. Commands are
-sent to the base URL of the repository with the command name sent in
-the ``cmd`` query string parameter. e.g.
-``https://example.com/repo?cmd=capabilities``. The HTTP method is ``GET``
-or ``POST`` depending on the command and whether there is a request
-body.
-
-Command arguments can be sent multiple ways.
-
-The simplest is part of the URL query string using ``x-www-form-urlencoded``
-encoding (see Python's ``urllib.urlencode()``. However, many servers impose
-length limitations on the URL. So this mechanism is typically only used if
-the server doesn't support other mechanisms.
-
-If the server supports the ``httpheader`` capability, command arguments can
-be sent in HTTP request headers named ``X-HgArg-<N>`` where ``<N>`` is an
-integer starting at 1. A ``x-www-form-urlencoded`` representation of the
-arguments is obtained. This full string is then split into chunks and sent
-in numbered ``X-HgArg-<N>`` headers. The maximum length of each HTTP header
-is defined by the server in the ``httpheader`` capability value, which defaults
-to ``1024``. The server reassembles the encoded arguments string by
-concatenating the ``X-HgArg-<N>`` headers then URL decodes them into a
-dictionary.
-
-The list of ``X-HgArg-<N>`` headers should be added to the ``Vary`` request
-header to instruct caches to take these headers into consideration when caching
-requests.
-
-If the server supports the ``httppostargs`` capability, the client
-may send command arguments in the HTTP request body as part of an
-HTTP POST request. The command arguments will be URL encoded just like
-they would for sending them via HTTP headers. However, no splitting is
-performed: the raw arguments are included in the HTTP request body.
-
-The client sends a ``X-HgArgs-Post`` header with the string length of the
-encoded arguments data. Additional data may be included in the HTTP
-request body immediately following the argument data. The offset of the
-non-argument data is defined by the ``X-HgArgs-Post`` header. The
-``X-HgArgs-Post`` header is not required if there is no argument data.
-
-Additional command data can be sent as part of the HTTP request body. The
-default ``Content-Type`` when sending data is ``application/mercurial-0.1``.
-A ``Content-Length`` header is currently always sent.
-
-Example HTTP requests::
-
-    GET /repo?cmd=capabilities
-    X-HgArg-1: foo=bar&baz=hello%20world
-
-The request media type should be chosen based on server support. If the
-``httpmediatype`` server capability is present, the client should send
-the newest mutually supported media type. If this capability is absent,
-the client must assume the server only supports the
-``application/mercurial-0.1`` media type.
-
-The ``Content-Type`` HTTP response header identifies the response as coming
-from Mercurial and can also be used to signal an error has occurred.
-
-The ``application/mercurial-*`` media types indicate a generic Mercurial
-data type.
-
-The ``application/mercurial-0.1`` media type is raw Mercurial data. It is the
-predecessor of the format below.
-
-The ``application/mercurial-0.2`` media type is compression framed Mercurial
-data. The first byte of the payload indicates the length of the compression
-format identifier that follows. Next are N bytes indicating the compression
-format. e.g. ``zlib``. The remaining bytes are compressed according to that
-compression format. The decompressed data behaves the same as with
-``application/mercurial-0.1``.
-
-The ``application/hg-error`` media type indicates a generic error occurred.
-The content of the HTTP response body typically holds text describing the
-error.
-
-The ``application/mercurial-cbor`` media type indicates a CBOR payload
-and should be interpreted as identical to ``application/cbor``.
-
-Behavior of media types is further described in the ``Content Negotiation``
-section below.
-
-Clients should issue a ``User-Agent`` request header that identifies the client.
-The server should not use the ``User-Agent`` for feature detection.
-
-A command returning a ``string`` response issues a
-``application/mercurial-0.*`` media type and the HTTP response body contains
-the raw string value (after compression decoding, if used). A
-``Content-Length`` header is typically issued, but not required.
-
-A command returning a ``stream`` response issues a
-``application/mercurial-0.*`` media type and the HTTP response is typically
-using *chunked transfer* (``Transfer-Encoding: chunked``).
-
-HTTP Version 2 Transport
-------------------------
-
-**Experimental - feature under active development**
-
-Version 2 of the HTTP protocol is exposed under the ``/api/*`` URL space.
-It's final API name is not yet formalized.
-
-Commands are triggered by sending HTTP POST requests against URLs of the
-form ``<permission>/<command>``, where ``<permission>`` is ``ro`` or
-``rw``, meaning read-only and read-write, respectively and ``<command>``
-is a named wire protocol command.
-
-Non-POST request methods MUST be rejected by the server with an HTTP
-405 response.
-
-Commands that modify repository state in meaningful ways MUST NOT be
-exposed under the ``ro`` URL prefix. All available commands MUST be
-available under the ``rw`` URL prefix.
-
-Server adminstrators MAY implement blanket HTTP authentication keyed
-off the URL prefix. For example, a server may require authentication
-for all ``rw/*`` URLs and let unauthenticated requests to ``ro/*``
-URL proceed. A server MAY issue an HTTP 401, 403, or 407 response
-in accordance with RFC 7235. Clients SHOULD recognize the HTTP Basic
-(RFC 7617) and Digest (RFC 7616) authentication schemes. Clients SHOULD
-make an attempt to recognize unknown schemes using the
-``WWW-Authenticate`` response header on a 401 response, as defined by
-RFC 7235.
-
-Read-only commands are accessible under ``rw/*`` URLs so clients can
-signal the intent of the operation very early in the connection
-lifecycle. For example, a ``push`` operation - which consists of
-various read-only commands mixed with at least one read-write command -
-can perform all commands against ``rw/*`` URLs so that any server-side
-authentication requirements are discovered upon attempting the first
-command - not potentially several commands into the exchange. This
-allows clients to fail faster or prompt for credentials as soon as the
-exchange takes place. This provides a better end-user experience.
-
-Requests to unknown commands or URLS result in an HTTP 404.
-TODO formally define response type, how error is communicated, etc.
-
-HTTP request and response bodies use the *Unified Frame-Based Protocol*
-(defined below) for media exchange. The entirety of the HTTP message
-body is 0 or more frames as defined by this protocol.
-
-Clients and servers MUST advertise the ``TBD`` media type via the
-``Content-Type`` request and response headers. In addition, clients MUST
-advertise this media type value in their ``Accept`` request header in all
-requests.
-TODO finalize the media type. For now, it is defined in wireprotoserver.py.
-
-Servers receiving requests without an ``Accept`` header SHOULD respond with
-an HTTP 406.
-
-Servers receiving requests with an invalid ``Content-Type`` header SHOULD
-respond with an HTTP 415.
-
-The command to run is specified in the POST payload as defined by the
-*Unified Frame-Based Protocol*. This is redundant with data already
-encoded in the URL. This is by design, so server operators can have
-better understanding about server activity from looking merely at
-HTTP access logs.
-
-In most circumstances, the command specified in the URL MUST match
-the command specified in the frame-based payload or the server will
-respond with an error. The exception to this is the special
-``multirequest`` URL. (See below.) In addition, HTTP requests
-are limited to one command invocation. The exception is the special
-``multirequest`` URL.
-
-The ``multirequest`` command endpoints (``ro/multirequest`` and
-``rw/multirequest``) are special in that they allow the execution of
-*any* command and allow the execution of multiple commands. If the
-HTTP request issues multiple commands across multiple frames, all
-issued commands will be processed by the server. Per the defined
-behavior of the *Unified Frame-Based Protocol*, commands may be
-issued interleaved and responses may come back in a different order
-than they were issued. Clients MUST be able to deal with this.
-
-SSH Protocol
-============
-
-Handshake
----------
-
-For all clients, the handshake consists of the client sending 1 or more
-commands to the server using version 1 of the transport. Servers respond
-to commands they know how to respond to and send an empty response (``0\n``)
-for unknown commands (per standard behavior of version 1 of the transport).
-Clients then typically look for a response to the newest sent command to
-determine which transport version to use and what the available features for
-the connection and server are.
-
-Preceding any response from client-issued commands, the server may print
-non-protocol output. It is common for SSH servers to print banners, message
-of the day announcements, etc when clients connect. It is assumed that any
-such *banner* output will precede any Mercurial server output. So clients
-must be prepared to handle server output on initial connect that isn't
-in response to any client-issued command and doesn't conform to Mercurial's
-wire protocol. This *banner* output should only be on stdout. However,
-some servers may send output on stderr.
-
-Pre 0.9.1 clients issue a ``between`` command with the ``pairs`` argument
-having the value
-``0000000000000000000000000000000000000000-0000000000000000000000000000000000000000``.
-
-The ``between`` command has been supported since the original Mercurial
-SSH server. Requesting the empty range will return a ``\n`` string response,
-which will be encoded as ``1\n\n`` (value length of ``1`` followed by a newline
-followed by the value, which happens to be a newline).
-
-For pre 0.9.1 clients and all servers, the exchange looks like::
-
-   c: between\n
-   c: pairs 81\n
-   c: 0000000000000000000000000000000000000000-0000000000000000000000000000000000000000
-   s: 1\n
-   s: \n
-
-0.9.1+ clients send a ``hello`` command (with no arguments) before the
-``between`` command. The response to this command allows clients to
-discover server capabilities and settings.
-
-An example exchange between 0.9.1+ clients and a ``hello`` aware server looks
-like::
-
-   c: hello\n
-   c: between\n
-   c: pairs 81\n
-   c: 0000000000000000000000000000000000000000-0000000000000000000000000000000000000000
-   s: 324\n
-   s: capabilities: lookup changegroupsubset branchmap pushkey known getbundle ...\n
-   s: 1\n
-   s: \n
-
-And a similar scenario but with servers sending a banner on connect::
-
-   c: hello\n
-   c: between\n
-   c: pairs 81\n
-   c: 0000000000000000000000000000000000000000-0000000000000000000000000000000000000000
-   s: welcome to the server\n
-   s: if you find any issues, email [e-mail]\n
-   s: 324\n
-   s: capabilities: lookup changegroupsubset branchmap pushkey known getbundle ...\n
-   s: 1\n
-   s: \n
-
-Note that output from the ``hello`` command is terminated by a ``\n``. This is
-part of the response payload and not part of the wire protocol adding a newline
-after responses. In other words, the length of the response contains the
-trailing ``\n``.
-
-Clients supporting version 2 of the SSH transport send a line beginning
-with ``upgrade`` before the ``hello`` and ``between`` commands. The line
-(which isn't a well-formed command line because it doesn't consist of a
-single command name) serves to both communicate the client's intent to
-switch to transport version 2 (transports are version 1 by default) as
-well as to advertise the client's transport-level capabilities so the
-server may satisfy that request immediately.
-
-The upgrade line has the form:
-
-    upgrade <token> <transport capabilities>
-
-That is the literal string ``upgrade`` followed by a space, followed by
-a randomly generated string, followed by a space, followed by a string
-denoting the client's transport capabilities.
-
-The token can be anything. However, a random UUID is recommended. (Use
-of version 4 UUIDs is recommended because version 1 UUIDs can leak the
-client's MAC address.)
-
-The transport capabilities string is a URL/percent encoded string
-containing key-value pairs defining the client's transport-level
-capabilities. The following capabilities are defined:
-
-proto
-   A comma-delimited list of transport protocol versions the client
-   supports. e.g. ``ssh-v2``.
-
-If the server does not recognize the ``upgrade`` line, it should issue
-an empty response and continue processing the ``hello`` and ``between``
-commands. Here is an example handshake between a version 2 aware client
-and a non version 2 aware server:
-
-   c: upgrade 2e82ab3f-9ce3-4b4e-8f8c-6fd1c0e9e23a proto=ssh-v2
-   c: hello\n
-   c: between\n
-   c: pairs 81\n
-   c: 0000000000000000000000000000000000000000-0000000000000000000000000000000000000000
-   s: 0\n
-   s: 324\n
-   s: capabilities: lookup changegroupsubset branchmap pushkey known getbundle ...\n
-   s: 1\n
-   s: \n
-
-(The initial ``0\n`` line from the server indicates an empty response to
-the unknown ``upgrade ..`` command/line.)
-
-If the server recognizes the ``upgrade`` line and is willing to satisfy that
-upgrade request, it replies to with a payload of the following form:
-
-   upgraded <token> <transport name>\n
-
-This line is the literal string ``upgraded``, a space, the token that was
-specified by the client in its ``upgrade ...`` request line, a space, and the
-name of the transport protocol that was chosen by the server. The transport
-name MUST match one of the names the client specified in the ``proto`` field
-of its ``upgrade ...`` request line.
-
-If a server issues an ``upgraded`` response, it MUST also read and ignore
-the lines associated with the ``hello`` and ``between`` command requests
-that were issued by the server. It is assumed that the negotiated transport
-will respond with equivalent requested information following the transport
-handshake.
-
-All data following the ``\n`` terminating the ``upgraded`` line is the
-domain of the negotiated transport. It is common for the data immediately
-following to contain additional metadata about the state of the transport and
-the server. However, this isn't strictly speaking part of the transport
-handshake and isn't covered by this section.
-
-Here is an example handshake between a version 2 aware client and a version
-2 aware server:
-
-   c:  upgrade 2e82ab3f-9ce3-4b4e-8f8c-6fd1c0e9e23a proto=ssh-v2
-   c:  hello\n
-   c:  between\n
-   c:  pairs 81\n
-   c:  0000000000000000000000000000000000000000-0000000000000000000000000000000000000000
-   s: upgraded 2e82ab3f-9ce3-4b4e-8f8c-6fd1c0e9e23a ssh-v2\n
-   s: <additional transport specific data>
-
-The client-issued token that is echoed in the response provides a more
-resilient mechanism for differentiating *banner* output from Mercurial
-output. In version 1, properly formatted banner output could get confused
-for Mercurial server output. By submitting a randomly generated token
-that is then present in the response, the client can look for that token
-in response lines and have reasonable certainty that the line did not
-originate from a *banner* message.
-
-SSH Version 1 Transport
------------------------
-
-The SSH transport (version 1) is a custom text-based protocol suitable for
-use over any bi-directional stream transport. It is most commonly used with
-SSH.
-
-A SSH transport server can be started with ``hg serve --stdio``. The stdin,
-stderr, and stdout file descriptors of the started process are used to exchange
-data. When Mercurial connects to a remote server over SSH, it actually starts
-a ``hg serve --stdio`` process on the remote server.
-
-Commands are issued by sending the command name followed by a trailing newline
-``\n`` to the server. e.g. ``capabilities\n``.
-
-Command arguments are sent in the following format::
-
-    <argument> <length>\n<value>
-
-That is, the argument string name followed by a space followed by the
-integer length of the value (expressed as a string) followed by a newline
-(``\n``) followed by the raw argument value.
-
-Dictionary arguments are encoded differently::
-
-    <argument> <# elements>\n
-    <key1> <length1>\n<value1>
-    <key2> <length2>\n<value2>
-    ...
-
-Non-argument data is sent immediately after the final argument value. It is
-encoded in chunks::
-
-    <length>\n<data>
-
-Each command declares a list of supported arguments and their types. If a
-client sends an unknown argument to the server, the server should abort
-immediately. The special argument ``*`` in a command's definition indicates
-that all argument names are allowed.
-
-The definition of supported arguments and types is initially made when a
-new command is implemented. The client and server must initially independently
-agree on the arguments and their types. This initial set of arguments can be
-supplemented through the presence of *capabilities* advertised by the server.
-
-Each command has a defined expected response type.
-
-A ``string`` response type is a length framed value. The response consists of
-the string encoded integer length of a value followed by a newline (``\n``)
-followed by the value. Empty values are allowed (and are represented as
-``0\n``).
-
-A ``stream`` response type consists of raw bytes of data. There is no framing.
-
-A generic error response type is also supported. It consists of a an error
-message written to ``stderr`` followed by ``\n-\n``. In addition, ``\n`` is
-written to ``stdout``.
-
-If the server receives an unknown command, it will send an empty ``string``
-response.
-
-The server terminates if it receives an empty command (a ``\n`` character).
-
-If the server announces support for the ``protocaps`` capability, the client
-should issue a ``protocaps`` command after the initial handshake to annonunce
-its own capabilities. The client capabilities are persistent.
-
-SSH Version 2 Transport
------------------------
-
-**Experimental and under development**
-
-Version 2 of the SSH transport behaves identically to version 1 of the SSH
-transport with the exception of handshake semantics. See above for how
-version 2 of the SSH transport is negotiated.
-
-Immediately following the ``upgraded`` line signaling a switch to version
-2 of the SSH protocol, the server automatically sends additional details
-about the capabilities of the remote server. This has the form:
-
-   <integer length of value>\n
-   capabilities: ...\n
-
-e.g.
-
-   s: upgraded 2e82ab3f-9ce3-4b4e-8f8c-6fd1c0e9e23a ssh-v2\n
-   s: 240\n
-   s: capabilities: known getbundle batch ...\n
-
-Following capabilities advertisement, the peers communicate using version
-1 of the SSH transport.
-
-Unified Frame-Based Protocol
-============================
-
-**Experimental and under development**
-
-The *Unified Frame-Based Protocol* is a communications protocol between
-Mercurial peers. The protocol aims to be mostly transport agnostic
-(works similarly on HTTP, SSH, etc).
-
-To operate the protocol, a bi-directional, half-duplex pipe supporting
-ordered sends and receives is required. That is, each peer has one pipe
-for sending data and another for receiving.
-
-All data is read and written in atomic units called *frames*. These
-are conceptually similar to TCP packets. Higher-level functionality
-is built on the exchange and processing of frames.
-
-All frames are associated with a *stream*. A *stream* provides a
-unidirectional grouping of frames. Streams facilitate two goals:
-content encoding and parallelism. There is a dedicated section on
-streams below.
-
-The protocol is request-response based: the client issues requests to
-the server, which issues replies to those requests. Server-initiated
-messaging is not currently supported, but this specification carves
-out room to implement it.
-
-All frames are associated with a numbered request. Frames can thus
-be logically grouped by their request ID.
-
-Frames begin with an 8 octet header followed by a variable length
-payload::
-
-    +------------------------------------------------+
-    |                 Length (24)                    |
-    +--------------------------------+---------------+
-    |         Request ID (16)        | Stream ID (8) |
-    +------------------+-------------+---------------+
-    | Stream Flags (8) |
-    +-----------+------+
-    | Type (4)  |
-    +-----------+
-    | Flags (4) |
-    +===========+===================================================|
-    |                     Frame Payload (0...)                    ...
-    +---------------------------------------------------------------+
-
-The length of the frame payload is expressed as an unsigned 24 bit
-little endian integer. Values larger than 65535 MUST NOT be used unless
-given permission by the server as part of the negotiated capabilities
-during the handshake. The frame header is not part of the advertised
-frame length. The payload length is the over-the-wire length. If there
-is content encoding applied to the payload as part of the frame's stream,
-the length is the output of that content encoding, not the input.
-
-The 16-bit ``Request ID`` field denotes the integer request identifier,
-stored as an unsigned little endian integer. Odd numbered requests are
-client-initiated. Even numbered requests are server-initiated. This
-refers to where the *request* was initiated - not where the *frame* was
-initiated, so servers will send frames with odd ``Request ID`` in
-response to client-initiated requests. Implementations are advised to
-start ordering request identifiers at ``1`` and ``0``, increment by
-``2``, and wrap around if all available numbers have been exhausted.
-
-The 8-bit ``Stream ID`` field denotes the stream that the frame is
-associated with. Frames belonging to a stream may have content
-encoding applied and the receiver may need to decode the raw frame
-payload to obtain the original data. Odd numbered IDs are
-client-initiated. Even numbered IDs are server-initiated.
-
-The 8-bit ``Stream Flags`` field defines stream processing semantics.
-See the section on streams below.
-
-The 4-bit ``Type`` field denotes the type of frame being sent.
-
-The 4-bit ``Flags`` field defines special, per-type attributes for
-the frame.
-
-The sections below define the frame types and their behavior.
-
-Command Request (``0x01``)
---------------------------
-
-This frame contains a request to run a command.
-
-The payload consists of a CBOR map defining the command request. The
-bytestring keys of that map are:
-
-name
-   Name of the command that should be executed (bytestring).
-args
-   Map of bytestring keys to various value types containing the named
-   arguments to this command.
-
-   Each command defines its own set of argument names and their expected
-   types.
-
-This frame type MUST ONLY be sent from clients to servers: it is illegal
-for a server to send this frame to a client.
-
-The following flag values are defined for this type:
-
-0x01
-   New command request. When set, this frame represents the beginning
-   of a new request to run a command. The ``Request ID`` attached to this
-   frame MUST NOT be active.
-0x02
-   Command request continuation. When set, this frame is a continuation
-   from a previous command request frame for its ``Request ID``. This
-   flag is set when the CBOR data for a command request does not fit
-   in a single frame.
-0x04
-   Additional frames expected. When set, the command request didn't fit
-   into a single frame and additional CBOR data follows in a subsequent
-   frame.
-0x08
-   Command data frames expected. When set, command data frames are
-   expected to follow the final command request frame for this request.
-
-``0x01`` MUST be set on the initial command request frame for a
-``Request ID``.
-
-``0x01`` or ``0x02`` MUST be set to indicate this frame's role in
-a series of command request frames.
-
-If command data frames are to be sent, ``0x08`` MUST be set on ALL
-command request frames.
-
-Command Data (``0x02``)
------------------------
-
-This frame contains raw data for a command.
-
-Most commands can be executed by specifying arguments. However,
-arguments have an upper bound to their length. For commands that
-accept data that is beyond this length or whose length isn't known
-when the command is initially sent, they will need to stream
-arbitrary data to the server. This frame type facilitates the sending
-of this data.
-
-The payload of this frame type consists of a stream of raw data to be
-consumed by the command handler on the server. The format of the data
-is command specific.
-
-The following flag values are defined for this type:
-
-0x01
-   Command data continuation. When set, the data for this command
-   continues into a subsequent frame.
-
-0x02
-   End of data. When set, command data has been fully sent to the
-   server. The command has been fully issued and no new data for this
-   command will be sent. The next frame will belong to a new command.
-
-Command Response Data (``0x03``)
---------------------------------
-
-This frame contains response data to an issued command.
-
-Response data ALWAYS consists of a series of 1 or more CBOR encoded
-values. A CBOR value may be using indefinite length encoding. And the
-bytes constituting the value may span several frames.
-
-The following flag values are defined for this type:
-
-0x01
-   Data continuation. When set, an additional frame containing response data
-   will follow.
-0x02
-   End of data. When set, the response data has been fully sent and
-   no additional frames for this response will be sent.
-
-The ``0x01`` flag is mutually exclusive with the ``0x02`` flag.
-
-Error Occurred (``0x05``)
--------------------------
-
-Some kind of error occurred.
-
-There are 3 general kinds of failures that can occur:
-
-* Command error encountered before any response issued
-* Command error encountered after a response was issued
-* Protocol or stream level error
-
-This frame type is used to capture the latter cases. (The general
-command error case is handled by the leading CBOR map in
-``Command Response`` frames.)
-
-The payload of this frame contains a CBOR map detailing the error. That
-map has the following bytestring keys:
-
-type
-   (bytestring) The overall type of error encountered. Can be one of the
-   following values:
-
-   protocol
-      A protocol-level error occurred. This typically means someone
-      is violating the framing protocol semantics and the server is
-      refusing to proceed.
-
-   server
-      A server-level error occurred. This typically indicates some kind of
-      logic error on the server, likely the fault of the server.
-
-   command
-      A command-level error, likely the fault of the client.
-
-message
-   (array of maps) A richly formatted message that is intended for
-   human consumption. See the ``Human Output Side-Channel`` frame
-   section for a description of the format of this data structure.
-
-Human Output Side-Channel (``0x06``)
-------------------------------------
-
-This frame contains a message that is intended to be displayed to
-people. Whereas most frames communicate machine readable data, this
-frame communicates textual data that is intended to be shown to
-humans.
-
-The frame consists of a series of *formatting requests*. Each formatting
-request consists of a formatting string, arguments for that formatting
-string, and labels to apply to that formatting string.
-
-A formatting string is a printf()-like string that allows variable
-substitution within the string. Labels allow the rendered text to be
-*decorated*. Assuming use of the canonical Mercurial code base, a
-formatting string can be the input to the ``i18n._`` function. This
-allows messages emitted from the server to be localized. So even if
-the server has different i18n settings, people could see messages in
-their *native* settings. Similarly, the use of labels allows
-decorations like coloring and underlining to be applied using the
-client's configured rendering settings.
-
-Formatting strings are similar to ``printf()`` strings or how
-Python's ``%`` operator works. The only supported formatting sequences
-are ``%s`` and ``%%``. ``%s`` will be replaced by whatever the string
-at that position resolves to. ``%%`` will be replaced by ``%``. All
-other 2-byte sequences beginning with ``%`` represent a literal
-``%`` followed by that character. However, future versions of the
-wire protocol reserve the right to allow clients to opt in to receiving
-formatting strings with additional formatters, hence why ``%%`` is
-required to represent the literal ``%``.
-
-The frame payload consists of a CBOR array of CBOR maps. Each map
-defines an *atom* of text data to print. Each *atom* has the following
-bytestring keys:
-
-msg
-   (bytestring) The formatting string. Content MUST be ASCII.
-args (optional)
-   Array of bytestrings defining arguments to the formatting string.
-labels (optional)
-   Array of bytestrings defining labels to apply to this atom.
-
-All data to be printed MUST be encoded into a single frame: this frame
-does not support spanning data across multiple frames.
-
-All textual data encoded in these frames is assumed to be line delimited.
-The last atom in the frame SHOULD end with a newline (``\n``). If it
-doesn't, clients MAY add a newline to facilitate immediate printing.
-
-Progress Update (``0x07``)
---------------------------
-
-This frame holds the progress of an operation on the peer. Consumption
-of these frames allows clients to display progress bars, estimated
-completion times, etc.
-
-Each frame defines the progress of a single operation on the peer. The
-payload consists of a CBOR map with the following bytestring keys:
-
-topic
-   Topic name (string)
-pos
-   Current numeric position within the topic (integer)
-total
-   Total/end numeric position of this topic (unsigned integer)
-label (optional)
-   Unit label (string)
-item (optional)
-   Item name (string)
-
-Progress state is created when a frame is received referencing a
-*topic* that isn't currently tracked. Progress tracking for that
-*topic* is finished when a frame is received reporting the current
-position of that topic as ``-1``.
-
-Multiple *topics* may be active at any given time.
-
-Rendering of progress information is not mandated or governed by this
-specification: implementations MAY render progress information however
-they see fit, including not at all.
-
-The string data describing the topic SHOULD be static strings to
-facilitate receivers localizing that string data. The emitter
-MUST normalize all string data to valid UTF-8 and receivers SHOULD
-validate that received data conforms to UTF-8. The topic name
-SHOULD be ASCII.
-
-Stream Encoding Settings (``0x08``)
------------------------------------
-
-This frame type holds information defining the content encoding
-settings for a *stream*.
-
-This frame type is likely consumed by the protocol layer and is not
-passed on to applications.
-
-This frame type MUST ONLY occur on frames having the *Beginning of Stream*
-``Stream Flag`` set.
-
-The payload of this frame defines what content encoding has (possibly)
-been applied to the payloads of subsequent frames in this stream.
-
-The payload begins with an 8-bit integer defining the length of the
-encoding *profile*, followed by the string name of that profile, which
-must be an ASCII string. All bytes that follow can be used by that
-profile for supplemental settings definitions. See the section below
-on defined encoding profiles.
-
-Stream States and Flags
------------------------
-
-Streams can be in two states: *open* and *closed*. An *open* stream
-is active and frames attached to that stream could arrive at any time.
-A *closed* stream is not active. If a frame attached to a *closed*
-stream arrives, that frame MUST have an appropriate stream flag
-set indicating beginning of stream. All streams are in the *closed*
-state by default.
-
-The ``Stream Flags`` field denotes a set of bit flags for defining
-the relationship of this frame within a stream. The following flags
-are defined:
-
-0x01
-   Beginning of stream. The first frame in the stream MUST set this
-   flag. When received, the ``Stream ID`` this frame is attached to
-   becomes ``open``.
-
-0x02
-   End of stream. The last frame in a stream MUST set this flag. When
-   received, the ``Stream ID`` this frame is attached to becomes
-   ``closed``. Any content encoding context associated with this stream
-   can be destroyed after processing the payload of this frame.
-
-0x04
-   Apply content encoding. When set, any content encoding settings
-   defined by the stream should be applied when attempting to read
-   the frame. When not set, the frame payload isn't encoded.
-
-Streams
--------
-
-Streams - along with ``Request IDs`` - facilitate grouping of frames.
-But the purpose of each is quite different and the groupings they
-constitute are independent.
-
-A ``Request ID`` is essentially a tag. It tells you which logical
-request a frame is associated with.
-
-A *stream* is a sequence of frames grouped for the express purpose
-of applying a stateful encoding or for denoting sub-groups of frames.
-
-Unlike ``Request ID``s which span the request and response, a stream
-is unidirectional and stream IDs are independent from client to
-server.
-
-There is no strict hierarchical relationship between ``Request IDs``
-and *streams*. A stream can contain frames having multiple
-``Request IDs``. Frames belonging to the same ``Request ID`` can
-span multiple streams.
-
-One goal of streams is to facilitate content encoding. A stream can
-define an encoding to be applied to frame payloads. For example, the
-payload transmitted over the wire may contain output from a
-zstandard compression operation and the receiving end may decompress
-that payload to obtain the original data.
-
-The other goal of streams is to facilitate concurrent execution. For
-example, a server could spawn 4 threads to service a request that can
-be easily parallelized. Each of those 4 threads could write into its
-own stream. Those streams could then in turn be delivered to 4 threads
-on the receiving end, with each thread consuming its stream in near
-isolation. The *main* thread on both ends merely does I/O and
-encodes/decodes frame headers: the bulk of the work is done by worker
-threads.
-
-In addition, since content encoding is defined per stream, each
-*worker thread* could perform potentially CPU bound work concurrently
-with other threads. This approach of applying encoding at the
-sub-protocol / stream level eliminates a potential resource constraint
-on the protocol stream as a whole (it is common for the throughput of
-a compression engine to be smaller than the throughput of a network).
-
-Having multiple streams - each with their own encoding settings - also
-facilitates the use of advanced data compression techniques. For
-example, a transmitter could see that it is generating data faster
-and slower than the receiving end is consuming it and adjust its
-compression settings to trade CPU for compression ratio accordingly.
-
-While streams can define a content encoding, not all frames within
-that stream must use that content encoding. This can be useful when
-data is being served from caches and being derived dynamically. A
-cache could pre-compressed data so the server doesn't have to
-recompress it. The ability to pick and choose which frames are
-compressed allows servers to easily send data to the wire without
-involving potentially expensive encoding overhead.
-
-Content Encoding Profiles
--------------------------
-
-Streams can have named content encoding *profiles* associated with
-them. A profile defines a shared understanding of content encoding
-settings and behavior.
-
-The following profiles are defined:
-
-TBD
-
-Command Protocol
-----------------
-
-A client can request that a remote run a command by sending it
-frames defining that command. This logical stream is composed of
-1 or more ``Command Request`` frames and and 0 or more ``Command Data``
-frames.
-
-All frames composing a single command request MUST be associated with
-the same ``Request ID``.
-
-Clients MAY send additional command requests without waiting on the
-response to a previous command request. If they do so, they MUST ensure
-that the ``Request ID`` field of outbound frames does not conflict
-with that of an active ``Request ID`` whose response has not yet been
-fully received.
-
-Servers MAY respond to commands in a different order than they were
-sent over the wire. Clients MUST be prepared to deal with this. Servers
-also MAY start executing commands in a different order than they were
-received, or MAY execute multiple commands concurrently.
-
-If there is a dependency between commands or a race condition between
-commands executing (e.g. a read-only command that depends on the results
-of a command that mutates the repository), then clients MUST NOT send
-frames issuing a command until a response to all dependent commands has
-been received.
-TODO think about whether we should express dependencies between commands
-to avoid roundtrip latency.
-
-A command is defined by a command name, 0 or more command arguments,
-and optional command data.
-
-Arguments are the recommended mechanism for transferring fixed sets of
-parameters to a command. Data is appropriate for transferring variable
-data. Thinking in terms of HTTP, arguments would be headers and data
-would be the message body.
-
-It is recommended for servers to delay the dispatch of a command
-until all argument have been received. Servers MAY impose limits on the
-maximum argument size.
-TODO define failure mechanism.
-
-Servers MAY dispatch to commands immediately once argument data
-is available or delay until command data is received in full.
-
-Once a ``Command Request`` frame is sent, a client must be prepared to
-receive any of the following frames associated with that request:
-``Command Response``, ``Error Response``, ``Human Output Side-Channel``,
-``Progress Update``.
-
-The *main* response for a command will be in ``Command Response`` frames.
-The payloads of these frames consist of 1 or more CBOR encoded values.
-The first CBOR value on the first ``Command Response`` frame is special
-and denotes the overall status of the command. This CBOR map contains
-the following bytestring keys:
-
-status
-   (bytestring) A well-defined message containing the overall status of
-   this command request. The following values are defined:
-
-   ok
-      The command was received successfully and its response follows.
-   error
-      There was an error processing the command. More details about the
-      error are encoded in the ``error`` key.
-
-error (optional)
-   A map containing information about an encountered error. The map has the
-   following keys:
-
-   message
-      (array of maps) A message describing the error. The message uses the
-      same format as those in the ``Human Output Side-Channel`` frame.
-
-Capabilities
-============
-
-Servers advertise supported wire protocol features. This allows clients to
-probe for server features before blindly calling a command or passing a
-specific argument.
-
-The server's features are exposed via a *capabilities* string. This is a
-space-delimited string of tokens/features. Some features are single words
-like ``lookup`` or ``batch``. Others are complicated key-value pairs
-advertising sub-features. e.g. ``httpheader=2048``. When complex, non-word
-values are used, each feature name can define its own encoding of sub-values.
-Comma-delimited and ``x-www-form-urlencoded`` values are common.
-
-The following document capabilities defined by the canonical Mercurial server
-implementation.
-
-batch
------
-
-Whether the server supports the ``batch`` command.
-
-This capability/command was introduced in Mercurial 1.9 (released July 2011).
-
-branchmap
----------
-
-Whether the server supports the ``branchmap`` command.
-
-This capability/command was introduced in Mercurial 1.3 (released July 2009).
-
-bundle2-exp
------------
-
-Precursor to ``bundle2`` capability that was used before bundle2 was a
-stable feature.
-
-This capability was introduced in Mercurial 3.0 behind an experimental
-flag. This capability should not be observed in the wild.
-
-bundle2
--------
-
-Indicates whether the server supports the ``bundle2`` data exchange format.
-
-The value of the capability is a URL quoted, newline (``\n``) delimited
-list of keys or key-value pairs.
-
-A key is simply a URL encoded string.
-
-A key-value pair is a URL encoded key separated from a URL encoded value by
-an ``=``. If the value is a list, elements are delimited by a ``,`` after
-URL encoding.
-
-For example, say we have the values::
-
-  {'HG20': [], 'changegroup': ['01', '02'], 'digests': ['sha1', 'sha512']}
-
-We would first construct a string::
-
-  HG20\nchangegroup=01,02\ndigests=sha1,sha512
-
-We would then URL quote this string::
-
-  HG20%0Achangegroup%3D01%2C02%0Adigests%3Dsha1%2Csha512
-
-This capability was introduced in Mercurial 3.4 (released May 2015).
-
-changegroupsubset
------------------
-
-Whether the server supports the ``changegroupsubset`` command.
-
-This capability was introduced in Mercurial 0.9.2 (released December
-2006).
-
-This capability was introduced at the same time as the ``lookup``
-capability/command.
-
-compression
------------
-
-Declares support for negotiating compression formats.
-
-Presence of this capability indicates the server supports dynamic selection
-of compression formats based on the client request.
-
-Servers advertising this capability are required to support the
-``application/mercurial-0.2`` media type in response to commands returning
-streams. Servers may support this media type on any command.
-
-The value of the capability is a comma-delimited list of strings declaring
-supported compression formats. The order of the compression formats is in
-server-preferred order, most preferred first.
-
-The identifiers used by the official Mercurial distribution are:
-
-bzip2
-   bzip2
-none
-   uncompressed / raw data
-zlib
-   zlib (no gzip header)
-zstd
-   zstd
-
-This capability was introduced in Mercurial 4.1 (released February 2017).
-
-getbundle
----------
-
-Whether the server supports the ``getbundle`` command.
-
-This capability was introduced in Mercurial 1.9 (released July 2011).
-
-httpheader
-----------
-
-Whether the server supports receiving command arguments via HTTP request
-headers.
-
-The value of the capability is an integer describing the max header
-length that clients should send. Clients should ignore any content after a
-comma in the value, as this is reserved for future use.
-
-This capability was introduced in Mercurial 1.9 (released July 2011).
-
-httpmediatype
--------------
-
-Indicates which HTTP media types (``Content-Type`` header) the server is
-capable of receiving and sending.
-
-The value of the capability is a comma-delimited list of strings identifying
-support for media type and transmission direction. The following strings may
-be present:
-
-0.1rx
-   Indicates server support for receiving ``application/mercurial-0.1`` media
-   types.
-
-0.1tx
-   Indicates server support for sending ``application/mercurial-0.1`` media
-   types.
-
-0.2rx
-   Indicates server support for receiving ``application/mercurial-0.2`` media
-   types.
-
-0.2tx
-   Indicates server support for sending ``application/mercurial-0.2`` media
-   types.
-
-minrx=X
-   Minimum media type version the server is capable of receiving. Value is a
-   string like ``0.2``.
-
-   This capability can be used by servers to limit connections from legacy
-   clients not using the latest supported media type. However, only clients
-   with knowledge of this capability will know to consult this value. This
-   capability is present so the client may issue a more user-friendly error
-   when the server has locked out a legacy client.
-
-mintx=X
-   Minimum media type version the server is capable of sending. Value is a
-   string like ``0.1``.
-
-Servers advertising support for the ``application/mercurial-0.2`` media type
-should also advertise the ``compression`` capability.
-
-This capability was introduced in Mercurial 4.1 (released February 2017).
-
-httppostargs
-------------
-
-**Experimental**
-
-Indicates that the server supports and prefers clients send command arguments
-via a HTTP POST request as part of the request body.
-
-This capability was introduced in Mercurial 3.8 (released May 2016).
-
-known
------
-
-Whether the server supports the ``known`` command.
-
-This capability/command was introduced in Mercurial 1.9 (released July 2011).
-
-lookup
-------
-
-Whether the server supports the ``lookup`` command.
-
-This capability was introduced in Mercurial 0.9.2 (released December
-2006).
-
-This capability was introduced at the same time as the ``changegroupsubset``
-capability/command.
-
-partial-pull
-------------
-
-Indicates that the client can deal with partial answers to pull requests
-by repeating the request.
-
-If this parameter is not advertised, the server will not send pull bundles.
-
-This client capability was introduced in Mercurial 4.6.
-
-protocaps
----------
-
-Whether the server supports the ``protocaps`` command for SSH V1 transport.
-
-This capability was introduced in Mercurial 4.6.
-
-pushkey
--------
-
-Whether the server supports the ``pushkey`` and ``listkeys`` commands.
-
-This capability was introduced in Mercurial 1.6 (released July 2010).
-
-standardbundle
---------------
-
-**Unsupported**
-
-This capability was introduced during the Mercurial 0.9.2 development cycle in
-2006. It was never present in a release, as it was replaced by the ``unbundle``
-capability. This capability should not be encountered in the wild.
-
-stream-preferred
-----------------
-
-If present the server prefers that clients clone using the streaming clone
-protocol (``hg clone --stream``) rather than the standard
-changegroup/bundle based protocol.
-
-This capability was introduced in Mercurial 2.2 (released May 2012).
-
-streamreqs
-----------
-
-Indicates whether the server supports *streaming clones* and the *requirements*
-that clients must support to receive it.
-
-If present, the server supports the ``stream_out`` command, which transmits
-raw revlogs from the repository instead of changegroups. This provides a faster
-cloning mechanism at the expense of more bandwidth used.
-
-The value of this capability is a comma-delimited list of repo format
-*requirements*. These are requirements that impact the reading of data in
-the ``.hg/store`` directory. An example value is
-``streamreqs=generaldelta,revlogv1`` indicating the server repo requires
-the ``revlogv1`` and ``generaldelta`` requirements.
-
-If the only format requirement is ``revlogv1``, the server may expose the
-``stream`` capability instead of the ``streamreqs`` capability.
-
-This capability was introduced in Mercurial 1.7 (released November 2010).
-
-stream
-------
-
-Whether the server supports *streaming clones* from ``revlogv1`` repos.
-
-If present, the server supports the ``stream_out`` command, which transmits
-raw revlogs from the repository instead of changegroups. This provides a faster
-cloning mechanism at the expense of more bandwidth used.
-
-This capability was introduced in Mercurial 0.9.1 (released July 2006).
-
-When initially introduced, the value of the capability was the numeric
-revlog revision. e.g. ``stream=1``. This indicates the changegroup is using
-``revlogv1``. This simple integer value wasn't powerful enough, so the
-``streamreqs`` capability was invented to handle cases where the repo
-requirements have more than just ``revlogv1``. Newer servers omit the
-``=1`` since it was the only value supported and the value of ``1`` can
-be implied by clients.
-
-unbundlehash
-------------
-
-Whether the ``unbundle`` commands supports receiving a hash of all the
-heads instead of a list.
-
-For more, see the documentation for the ``unbundle`` command.
-
-This capability was introduced in Mercurial 1.9 (released July 2011).
-
-unbundle
---------
-
-Whether the server supports pushing via the ``unbundle`` command.
-
-This capability/command has been present since Mercurial 0.9.1 (released
-July 2006).
-
-Mercurial 0.9.2 (released December 2006) added values to the capability
-indicating which bundle types the server supports receiving. This value is a
-comma-delimited list. e.g. ``HG10GZ,HG10BZ,HG10UN``. The order of values
-reflects the priority/preference of that type, where the first value is the
-most preferred type.
-
-Content Negotiation
-===================
-
-The wire protocol has some mechanisms to help peers determine what content
-types and encoding the other side will accept. Historically, these mechanisms
-have been built into commands themselves because most commands only send a
-well-defined response type and only certain commands needed to support
-functionality like compression.
-
-Currently, only the HTTP version 1 transport supports content negotiation
-at the protocol layer.
-
-HTTP requests advertise supported response formats via the ``X-HgProto-<N>``
-request header, where ``<N>`` is an integer starting at 1 allowing the logical
-value to span multiple headers. This value consists of a list of
-space-delimited parameters. Each parameter denotes a feature or capability.
-
-The following parameters are defined:
-
-0.1
-   Indicates the client supports receiving ``application/mercurial-0.1``
-   responses.
-
-0.2
-   Indicates the client supports receiving ``application/mercurial-0.2``
-   responses.
-
-cbor
-   Indicates the client supports receiving ``application/mercurial-cbor``
-   responses.
-
-   (Only intended to be used with version 2 transports.)
-
-comp
-   Indicates compression formats the client can decode. Value is a list of
-   comma delimited strings identifying compression formats ordered from
-   most preferential to least preferential. e.g. ``comp=zstd,zlib,none``.
-
-   This parameter does not have an effect if only the ``0.1`` parameter
-   is defined, as support for ``application/mercurial-0.2`` or greater is
-   required to use arbitrary compression formats.
-
-   If this parameter is not advertised, the server interprets this as
-   equivalent to ``zlib,none``.
-
-Clients may choose to only send this header if the ``httpmediatype``
-server capability is present, as currently all server-side features
-consulting this header require the client to opt in to new protocol features
-advertised via the ``httpmediatype`` capability.
-
-A server that doesn't receive an ``X-HgProto-<N>`` header should infer a
-value of ``0.1``. This is compatible with legacy clients.
-
-A server receiving a request indicating support for multiple media type
-versions may respond with any of the supported media types. Not all servers
-may support all media types on all commands.
-
-Commands
-========
-
-This section contains a list of all wire protocol commands implemented by
-the canonical Mercurial server.
-
-batch
------
-
-Issue multiple commands while sending a single command request. The purpose
-of this command is to allow a client to issue multiple commands while avoiding
-multiple round trips to the server therefore enabling commands to complete
-quicker.
-
-The command accepts a ``cmds`` argument that contains a list of commands to
-execute.
-
-The value of ``cmds`` is a ``;`` delimited list of strings. Each string has the
-form ``<command> <arguments>``. That is, the command name followed by a space
-followed by an argument string.
-
-The argument string is a ``,`` delimited list of ``<key>=<value>`` values
-corresponding to command arguments. Both the argument name and value are
-escaped using a special substitution map::
-
-   : -> :c
-   , -> :o
-   ; -> :s
-   = -> :e
-
-The response type for this command is ``string``. The value contains a
-``;`` delimited list of responses for each requested command. Each value
-in this list is escaped using the same substitution map used for arguments.
-
-If an error occurs, the generic error response may be sent.
-
-between
--------
-
-(Legacy command used for discovery in old clients)
-
-Obtain nodes between pairs of nodes.
-
-The ``pairs`` arguments contains a space-delimited list of ``-`` delimited
-hex node pairs. e.g.::
-
-   a072279d3f7fd3a4aa7ffa1a5af8efc573e1c896-6dc58916e7c070f678682bfe404d2e2d68291a18
-
-Return type is a ``string``. Value consists of lines corresponding to each
-requested range. Each line contains a space-delimited list of hex nodes.
-A newline ``\n`` terminates each line, including the last one.
-
-branchmap
----------
-
-Obtain heads in named branches.
-
-Accepts no arguments. Return type is a ``string``.
-
-Return value contains lines with URL encoded branch names followed by a space
-followed by a space-delimited list of hex nodes of heads on that branch.
-e.g.::
-
-    default a072279d3f7fd3a4aa7ffa1a5af8efc573e1c896 6dc58916e7c070f678682bfe404d2e2d68291a18
-    stable baae3bf31522f41dd5e6d7377d0edd8d1cf3fccc
-
-There is no trailing newline.
-
-branches
---------
-
-(Legacy command used for discovery in old clients. Clients with ``getbundle``
-use the ``known`` and ``heads`` commands instead.)
-
-Obtain ancestor changesets of specific nodes back to a branch point.
-
-Despite the name, this command has nothing to do with Mercurial named branches.
-Instead, it is related to DAG branches.
-
-The command accepts a ``nodes`` argument, which is a string of space-delimited
-hex nodes.
-
-For each node requested, the server will find the first ancestor node that is
-a DAG root or is a merge.
-
-Return type is a ``string``. Return value contains lines with result data for
-each requested node. Each line contains space-delimited nodes followed by a
-newline (``\n``). The 4 nodes reported on each line correspond to the requested
-node, the ancestor node found, and its 2 parent nodes (which may be the null
-node).
-
-capabilities
-------------
-
-Obtain the capabilities string for the repo.
-
-Unlike the ``hello`` command, the capabilities string is not prefixed.
-There is no trailing newline.
-
-This command does not accept any arguments. Return type is a ``string``.
-
-This command was introduced in Mercurial 0.9.1 (released July 2006).
-
-changegroup
------------
-
-(Legacy command: use ``getbundle`` instead)
-
-Obtain a changegroup version 1 with data for changesets that are
-descendants of client-specified changesets.
-
-The ``roots`` arguments contains a list of space-delimited hex nodes.
-
-The server responds with a changegroup version 1 containing all
-changesets between the requested root/base nodes and the repo's head nodes
-at the time of the request.
-
-The return type is a ``stream``.
-
-changegroupsubset
------------------
-
-(Legacy command: use ``getbundle`` instead)
-
-Obtain a changegroup version 1 with data for changesetsets between
-client specified base and head nodes.
-
-The ``bases`` argument contains a list of space-delimited hex nodes.
-The ``heads`` argument contains a list of space-delimited hex nodes.
-
-The server responds with a changegroup version 1 containing all
-changesets between the requested base and head nodes at the time of the
-request.
-
-The return type is a ``stream``.
-
-clonebundles
-------------
-
-Obtains a manifest of bundle URLs available to seed clones.
-
-Each returned line contains a URL followed by metadata. See the
-documentation in the ``clonebundles`` extension for more.
-
-The return type is a ``string``.
-
-getbundle
----------
-
-Obtain a bundle containing repository data.
-
-This command accepts the following arguments:
-
-heads
-   List of space-delimited hex nodes of heads to retrieve.
-common
-   List of space-delimited hex nodes that the client has in common with the
-   server.
-obsmarkers
-   Boolean indicating whether to include obsolescence markers as part
-   of the response. Only works with bundle2.
-bundlecaps
-   Comma-delimited set of strings defining client bundle capabilities.
-listkeys
-   Comma-delimited list of strings of ``pushkey`` namespaces. For each
-   namespace listed, a bundle2 part will be included with the content of
-   that namespace.
-cg
-   Boolean indicating whether changegroup data is requested.
-cbattempted
-   Boolean indicating whether the client attempted to use the *clone bundles*
-   feature before performing this request.
-bookmarks
-   Boolean indicating whether bookmark data is requested.
-phases
-   Boolean indicating whether phases data is requested.
-
-The return type on success is a ``stream`` where the value is bundle.
-On the HTTP version 1 transport, the response is zlib compressed.
-
-If an error occurs, a generic error response can be sent.
-
-Unless the client sends a false value for the ``cg`` argument, the returned
-bundle contains a changegroup with the nodes between the specified ``common``
-and ``heads`` nodes. Depending on the command arguments, the type and content
-of the returned bundle can vary significantly.
-
-The default behavior is for the server to send a raw changegroup version
-``01`` response.
-
-If the ``bundlecaps`` provided by the client contain a value beginning
-with ``HG2``, a bundle2 will be returned. The bundle2 data may contain
-additional repository data, such as ``pushkey`` namespace values.
-
-heads
------
-
-Returns a list of space-delimited hex nodes of repository heads followed
-by a newline. e.g.
-``a9eeb3adc7ddb5006c088e9eda61791c777cbf7c 31f91a3da534dc849f0d6bfc00a395a97cf218a1\n``
-
-This command does not accept any arguments. The return type is a ``string``.
-
-hello
------
-
-Returns lines describing interesting things about the server in an RFC-822
-like format.
-
-Currently, the only line defines the server capabilities. It has the form::
-
-    capabilities: <value>
-
-See above for more about the capabilities string.
-
-SSH clients typically issue this command as soon as a connection is
-established.
-
-This command does not accept any arguments. The return type is a ``string``.
-
-This command was introduced in Mercurial 0.9.1 (released July 2006).
-
-listkeys
---------
-
-List values in a specified ``pushkey`` namespace.
-
-The ``namespace`` argument defines the pushkey namespace to operate on.
-
-The return type is a ``string``. The value is an encoded dictionary of keys.
-
-Key-value pairs are delimited by newlines (``\n``). Within each line, keys and
-values are separated by a tab (``\t``). Keys and values are both strings.
-
-lookup
-------
-
-Try to resolve a value to a known repository revision.
-
-The ``key`` argument is converted from bytes to an
-``encoding.localstr`` instance then passed into
-``localrepository.__getitem__`` in an attempt to resolve it.
-
-The return type is a ``string``.
-
-Upon successful resolution, returns ``1 <hex node>\n``. On failure,
-returns ``0 <error string>\n``. e.g.::
-
-   1 273ce12ad8f155317b2c078ec75a4eba507f1fba\n
-
-   0 unknown revision 'foo'\n
-
-known
------
-
-Determine whether multiple nodes are known.
-
-The ``nodes`` argument is a list of space-delimited hex nodes to check
-for existence.
-
-The return type is ``string``.
-
-Returns a string consisting of ``0``s and ``1``s indicating whether nodes
-are known. If the Nth node specified in the ``nodes`` argument is known,
-a ``1`` will be returned at byte offset N. If the node isn't known, ``0``
-will be present at byte offset N.
-
-There is no trailing newline.
-
-protocaps
----------
-
-Notify the server about the client capabilities in the SSH V1 transport
-protocol.
-
-The ``caps`` argument is a space-delimited list of capabilities.
-
-The server will reply with the string ``OK``.
-
-pushkey
--------
-
-Set a value using the ``pushkey`` protocol.
-
-Accepts arguments ``namespace``, ``key``, ``old``, and ``new``, which
-correspond to the pushkey namespace to operate on, the key within that
-namespace to change, the old value (which may be empty), and the new value.
-All arguments are string types.
-
-The return type is a ``string``. The value depends on the transport protocol.
-
-The SSH version 1 transport sends a string encoded integer followed by a
-newline (``\n``) which indicates operation result. The server may send
-additional output on the ``stderr`` stream that should be displayed to the
-user.
-
-The HTTP version 1 transport sends a string encoded integer followed by a
-newline followed by additional server output that should be displayed to
-the user. This may include output from hooks, etc.
-
-The integer result varies by namespace. ``0`` means an error has occurred
-and there should be additional output to display to the user.
-
-stream_out
-----------
-
-Obtain *streaming clone* data.
-
-The return type is either a ``string`` or a ``stream``, depending on
-whether the request was fulfilled properly.
-
-A return value of ``1\n`` indicates the server is not configured to serve
-this data. If this is seen by the client, they may not have verified the
-``stream`` capability is set before making the request.
-
-A return value of ``2\n`` indicates the server was unable to lock the
-repository to generate data.
-
-All other responses are a ``stream`` of bytes. The first line of this data
-contains 2 space-delimited integers corresponding to the path count and
-payload size, respectively::
-
-    <path count> <payload size>\n
-
-The ``<payload size>`` is the total size of path data: it does not include
-the size of the per-path header lines.
-
-Following that header are ``<path count>`` entries. Each entry consists of a
-line with metadata followed by raw revlog data. The line consists of::
-
-    <store path>\0<size>\n
-
-The ``<store path>`` is the encoded store path of the data that follows.
-``<size>`` is the amount of data for this store path/revlog that follows the
-newline.
-
-There is no trailer to indicate end of data. Instead, the client should stop
-reading after ``<path count>`` entries are consumed.
-
-unbundle
---------
-
-Send a bundle containing data (usually changegroup data) to the server.
-
-Accepts the argument ``heads``, which is a space-delimited list of hex nodes
-corresponding to server repository heads observed by the client. This is used
-to detect race conditions and abort push operations before a server performs
-too much work or a client transfers too much data.
-
-The request payload consists of a bundle to be applied to the repository,
-similarly to as if :hg:`unbundle` were called.
-
-In most scenarios, a special ``push response`` type is returned. This type
-contains an integer describing the change in heads as a result of the
-operation. A value of ``0`` indicates nothing changed. ``1`` means the number
-of heads remained the same. Values ``2`` and larger indicate the number of
-added heads minus 1. e.g. ``3`` means 2 heads were added. Negative values
-indicate the number of fewer heads, also off by 1. e.g. ``-2`` means there
-is 1 fewer head.
-
-The encoding of the ``push response`` type varies by transport.
-
-For the SSH version 1 transport, this type is composed of 2 ``string``
-responses: an empty response (``0\n``) followed by the integer result value.
-e.g. ``1\n2``. So the full response might be ``0\n1\n2``.
-
-For the HTTP version 1 transport, the response is a ``string`` type composed
-of an integer result value followed by a newline (``\n``) followed by string
-content holding server output that should be displayed on the client (output
-hooks, etc).
-
-In some cases, the server may respond with a ``bundle2`` bundle. In this
-case, the response type is ``stream``. For the HTTP version 1 transport, the
-response is zlib compressed.
-
-The server may also respond with a generic error type, which contains a string
-indicating the failure.
