-a, \--append::
|
|
Append ref names and object names of fetched refs to the
|
|
existing contents of `.git/FETCH_HEAD`. Without this
|
|
option old data in `.git/FETCH_HEAD` will be overwritten.
|
|
|
|
-f, \--force::
|
|
|
|
-t, \--tags::
|
|
By default, the git core utilities will not fetch and store
|
|
tags under the same name as the remote repository; ask it
|
|
to do so using `--tags`. Using this option will bound the
|
|
list of objects pulled to the remote tags. Commits in branches
|
|
beyond the tags will be ignored.
|
|
|
|
-u, \--update-head-ok::
|
|
By default `git-fetch` refuses to update the head which
|
|
corresponds to the current branch. This flag disables the
|
|
check. Note that fetching into the current branch will not
|
|
update the index and working directory, so use it with care.
