Hi, Here's the second version of the patches incorporating input from Junio and Peff.
The first patch does all the work, the second patch uses it; basically, this is needed so the transport-helper code is able to check if the remote-helper child is stilll running. Without this support, the status of the remote-helper files and configuration can end up very badly when errors occur, to the point where the user is unable to use it any more. The rest of the patches are for testing purposes only. I ran all the tests with these, and I didn't see any problems.
