From: "Shawn O. Pearce" <spea...@spearce.org>

If the user doesn't want to use the dumb HTTP protocol, she may
set GIT_CURL_FALLBACK=0 in the environment before invoking a Git
protocol operation. This is mostly useful when testing against
servers that are known to not support the dumb protocol. If the
smart service detection fails the client should not continue with
dumb behavior, but instead provide accurate HTTP failure data.
