Subject: [PATCH] retry request without query when info/refs?query fails
When "info/refs" is a static file and not behind a CGI handler, some
servers may not handle a GET request for it with a query string
appended (eg. "?foo=bar") properly.
If such a request fails, retry it sans the query string. In addition,
ensure that the "smart" http protocol is not used (a service has to be
specified with "?service=<service name>" to be conformant).
