- * An invalid regular expression pattern given by an end user made

- * "git rev-list --verify-objects -q" omitted the extra verification
-   it needs to do over "git rev-list --objects -q" by mistake.

- * The bulk check-in codepath streamed contents that needs

- * When a remote helper exits before reading the blank line from the
