Research direction
Investigate previous discussions in #672 and #464 for requirements and challenges. Review isomorphic git's current architecture, especially server related code if any. Consider existing libraries like nodegit or simple git for reference. Outline minimal git server protocol support (e.g., smart HTTP or SSH).
