Note [1] seems to talk about an old client pulling from a new server, 
and note [2] about a new client pushing to an old server, i.e. both 
about the case when the destination is an old repository.

What about an old client pushing to a new server, and a new client 
pulling from an old server? Will the destination repository get linear 
deltas or will it use parent deltas?
