git-update-server-info - Update auxiliary info file to help dumb servers
SYNOPSIS

'git-update-server-info' [--force]
DESCRIPTION
-----------
A dumb server that does not do on-the-fly pack generations can

$GIT_OBJECT_DIRECTORY/info directories to help clients discover
what references and packs the server has and make optimized
pull decisions. This command generates such auxiliary files.

stale.
