they'll defer to existing limits specified in the server
configuration.
At this point the client and server both switch to using a
multiplexing layer across the socket. The main point of this is to
allow the server to asynchronously pass errors back, while still
allowing streamed and pipelined data.
The server then talks to the client as normal across the socket,
passing checksums, file lists and so on. For documentation of that,
stay tuned (or write it yourself!).
