In Documentation/technical/http-protocol.txt, there is the following statement:

"S: Parse the git-upload-pack request:

Verify all objects in `want` are directly reachable from refs.

The server MAY walk backwards through history or through
the reflog to permit slightly stale requests."

Is there actually logic somewhere in Git that does that "MAY walk
backwards" step? Or is that something another implementation of Git
may do but the standard Git does not?

Thanks,
Bryan Turner
