typing in the common case where the client does multiple syncs to
the same server.)

The client modifies the URL by appending the method name "<b>/xfer</b>"
to the end.  For example, if the URL specified on the client command
line is

<pre>https://fossil-scm.org/fossil</pre>
<pre>https://fossil-scm.org/home</pre>

Then the URL that is really used to do the synchronization will
be:

<pre>https://fossil-scm.org/fossil/xfer</pre>
<pre>https://fossil-scm.org/home/xfer</pre>

<h3 id="req-format">2.2 HTTP Request Format</h3>

general format of the POST request is as follows:

<pre>
POST /fossil/xfer HTTP/1.0
POST /home/xfer HTTP/1.0
Host: fossil-scm.hwaci.com:80
Content-Type: application/x-fossil
Content-Length: 4216
</pre>
