 /**
- * Git Smart HTTP Protocol Implementation
+ * @fileoverview Git Smart HTTP Protocol Implementation
  *
- * Implements the Git Smart HTTP protocol for server-side handling of:
- * - Fetch discovery (GET /info/refs?service=git-upload-pack)
- * - Push discovery (GET /info/refs?service=git-receive-pack)
- * - Fetch data transfer (POST /git-upload-pack)
- * - Push data transfer (POST /git-receive-pack)
+ * This module implements the Git Smart HTTP protocol for server-side handling of
+ * Git fetch and push operations over HTTP. It provides handlers for:
  *
- * Reference: https://git-scm.com/docs/http-protocol
+ * - **Ref Discovery** (`GET /info/refs?service=git-upload-pack|git-receive-pack`)
+ *   Advertises available refs and server capabilities to clients.
+ *
+ * - **Fetch Data Transfer** (`POST /git-upload-pack`)
+ *   Handles client fetch requests by processing wants/haves and returning packfiles.
+ *
+ * - **Push Data Transfer** (`POST /git-receive-pack`)
+ *   Handles client push requests by processing ref updates and incoming packfiles.
+ *
+ * @module wire/smart-http
+ * @see {@link https://git-scm.com/docs/http-protocol} Git HTTP Protocol Documentation
+ * @see {@link https://git-scm.com/docs/protocol-common} Git Protocol Common
+ *
+ * @example Basic server integration
+ * ```typescript
+ * import { handleInfoRefs, handleUploadPack, handleReceivePack } from './wire/smart-http'
+ *
+ * // Handle GET /repo.git/info/refs?service=git-upload-pack
+ * app.get('/:repo/info/refs', async (req, res) => {
+ *   const request: SmartHTTPRequest = {
+ *     method: 'GET',

+ *     query: { service: req.query.service },
+ *     headers: req.headers,
+ *     repository: req.params.repo
+ *   }
+ *   const response = await handleInfoRefs(request, repositoryProvider, capabilities)
+ *   res.status(response.status).set(response.headers).send(response.body)
