But that made me look at its sibling update_info_packs(), and whether it needs its force parameter. It _does_ in fact do something (though I am slightly doubtful that anybody actually cares in practice). However, I did see a memory bug in its parser, which is fixed by patch 6. And a bunch of other cleanups, which are patches 7-11. Fortunately that buggy parser is not used to look at info/packs files we pull over dumb-http; it has its own parser. So I looked at that, and of course it had a bug, too (fixed in patch 5). And in those cleanups, I needed to get the basename of a pack from its packed_git. So I looked for other code that did the same, in case we could benefit from a shared helper. And behold, the midx code does. But you guessed it, there was a bug (actually 2). Fixed in patches 4 (with necessary refactoring in patch 3). And while constructing a test for that bug, I noticed that one of the other tests in t5319 was buggy. So that's patch 1 (with some cleanup in patch 2). And here we are. I present them here in reverse rabbit-hole order (which is also roughly important fixes first, and minor cleanups last). The individual chunks are mostly independent, but the server-info cleanups rely on the shared pack_basename() helper added as part of the midx fix.
