From ada96f42ebdcafdafe299b3f0a394d576ee9c9c1 Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Johannes Schindelin Date: Fri, 21 Jun 2024 12:37:30 +0200 Subject: [PATCH] fixup! Adjust README.md for microsoft/git Adjust the currently-broken GVFS Protocol link. The current link points to a page that has gone away. While there is https://web.archive.org/web/20210302002834/https://docs.microsoft.com/en-us/azure/devops/learn/git/gvfs-architecture#gvfs-protocol that _could_ be used to reinstate the link, it is not actually the best document to which to point the keen reader. We already point interested parties to the VFSforGit repository's documentation elsewhere, so let's also do that in the README. This fixes https://github.com/microsoft/git/issues/628.

The integration with the GVFS protocol present in `microsoft/git` is not appropriate to include in the core Git client because partial clone is the official version of that functionality.
