[PATCH v2 0/3] Clear flags before each v2 request

[Jonathan Tan <jonathantanmy@google.com>]

To explain the differences in this version of the patch set, I'll quote
an email [1] from Junio:

[1] https://public-inbox.org/git/xmqq5zxzvnq1.fsf@gitster-ct.c.googlers.com/

> The change to the code itself sort-of makes sense (I say sort-of
> because I didn't carefully look at the callers to see if they mind
> getting all these flags cleared, but the ones that are cleared are
> the ones that are involved mostly in the negotiation and shold be
> OK).

I have included 2 additional patches for these reasons:

 - After reading the section of Junio's email quoted above, I took
   another look at the flags, and found that not only is state stored in
   the flags between invocations of upload_pack_v2(), state is also
   stored in the want_obj and have_obj global variables. The additional
   patches help clean those up.

 - To help reviewers who want to see if the callers mind getting all 8
   flags cleared, I have included a discussion of all 8 flags in the
   commit message of patch 3. The additional patches made the discussion
   easier.

Responses to other points:

> Hmph, what if commit O had a long history behind it?

> Should fetching of B result in fetching the whole history?

I think so - when we fetch without --depth or any similar arguments, I
think it's reasonable to have all objects referenced by the fetched
tips.

> Would we

We could, but I think this is outside the scope of this patch set.

> Use test_seq instead, or you'll get hit by test-lint?

Thanks for the pointer to test-lint. I've used test_seq, and checked
that test-lint doesn't print any errors.

Thanks - there was a copy-and-paste error (should have grepped for
"fetch< version 2", not "git< version 2").
