git-fetch-pack(1)
|
||||
=================
|
||||
v0.1, July 2005
|
||||
|
||||
NAME
|
||||
----
|
||||
git-fetch-pack - Receive missing objects from another repository.
|
||||
|
||||
|
||||
SYNOPSIS
|
||||
--------
|
||||
git-fetch-pack [-q] [--exec=<git-upload-pack>] [<host>:]<directory> [<head>...] < <commit-list>
|
||||
|
||||
DESCRIPTION
|
||||
-----------
|
||||
Invokes 'git-upload-pack' on a potentially remote repository,
|
||||
and asks it to send objects missing from this repository, to
|
||||
update the named heads. The list of commits available locally
|
||||
is fed from the standard input, to be sent to 'git-upload-pack'
|
||||
running on the other end.
|
||||
|
||||
This command can be used only when the local side has a common
|
||||
(ancestor) commit with the remote head that is being pulled
|
||||
from. Use 'git-clone-pack' for that.
|
||||
|
||||
|
||||
OPTIONS
|
||||
-------
|
||||
-q::
|
||||
Pass '-q' flag to 'git-unpack-objects'; this makes the
|
||||
cloning process less verbose.
|
||||
|
||||
--exec=<git-upload-pack>::
|
||||
Use this to specify the path to 'git-upload-pack' on the
|
||||
remote side, if is not found on your $PATH.
|
||||
Installations of sshd ignores the user's environment
|
||||
setup scripts for login shells (e.g. .bash_profile) and
|
||||
your privately installed GIT may not be found on the system
|
||||
default $PATH. Another workaround suggested is to set
|
||||
up your $PATH in ".bashrc", but this flag is for people
|
||||
who do not want to pay the overhead for non-interactive
|
||||
shells by having a lean .bashrc file (they set most of
|
||||
the things up in .bash_profile).
|
||||
|
||||
<host>::
|
||||
A remote host that houses the repository. When this
|
||||
part is specified, 'git-upload-pack' is invoked via
|
||||
ssh.
|
||||
|
||||
<directory>::
|
||||
The repository to sync from.
|
||||
|
||||
<head>...::
|
||||
The remote heads to update from. This is relative to
|
||||
$GIT_DIR (e.g. "HEAD", "refs/heads/master"). When
|
||||
unspecified, update from all heads the remote side has.
|
||||
|
||||
However the program refuses to work if more than one
|
||||
remote head matches the specified heads. I am not sure
|
||||
what this means... Help!!!!!

git-upload-pack(1)
|
||||
==================
|
||||
v0.1, July 2005
|
||||
|
||||
NAME
|
||||
----
|
||||
git-upload-pack - Send missing objects packed.
|
||||
|
||||
|
||||
SYNOPSIS
|
||||
--------
|
||||
'git-upload-pack' <directory>
|
||||
|
||||
DESCRIPTION
|
||||
-----------
|
||||
Invoked by 'git-clone-pack' and/or 'git-fetch-pack', learns what
|
||||
objects the other side is missing, and sends them after packing.
|
||||
|
||||
This command is usually not invoked directly by the end user.
|
||||
The UI for the protocol is on the 'git-fetch-pack' side, and the
|
||||
program pair is meant to be used to pull updates from a remote
|
||||
repository. For push operations, see 'git-send-pack'.
|
||||

||||
