The point of these sections is generally to:
1. Give credit where it is due.
2. Give the reader an idea of where to ask questions or
file bug reports.
But they don't do a good job of either case. For (1), they
are out of date and incomplete. A much more accurate answer
can be gotten through shortlog or blame. For (2), the
correct contact point is generally git@vger, and even if you
wanted to cc the contact point, the out-of-date and
incomplete fields mean you're likely sending to somebody
useless.
So let's drop the fields entirely from all manpages except
git(1) itself. We already point people to the mailing list
for bug reports there, and we can update the Authors section
to give credit to the major contributors and point to
shortlog and blame for more information.
Each page has a "This is part of git" footer, so people can
follow that to the main git manpage.

git-http-push(1)
|
|
================
|
|
|
|
NAME
|
|
----
|
|
git-http-push - Push objects over HTTP/DAV to another repository
|
|
|
|
|
|
SYNOPSIS
|
|
--------
|
|
'git http-push' [--all] [--dry-run] [--force] [--verbose] <url> <ref> [<ref>...]
|
|
|
|
DESCRIPTION
|
|
-----------
|
|
Sends missing objects to remote repository, and updates the
|
|
remote branch.
|
|
|
|
*NOTE*: This command is temporarily disabled if your libcurl
|
|
is older than 7.16, as the combination has been reported
|
|
not to work and sometimes corrupts repository.
|
|
|
|
OPTIONS
|
|
-------
|
|
--all::
|
|
Do not assume that the remote repository is complete in its
|
|
current state, and verify all objects in the entire local
|
|
ref's history exist in the remote repository.
|
|
|
|
--force::
|
|
Usually, the command refuses to update a remote ref that
|
|
is not an ancestor of the local ref used to overwrite it.
|
|
This flag disables the check. What this means is that
|
|
the remote repository can lose commits; use it with
|
|
care.
|
|
|
|
--dry-run::
|
|
Do everything except actually send the updates.
|
|
|
|
--verbose::
|
|
Report the list of objects being walked locally and the
|
|
list of objects successfully sent to the remote repository.
|
|
|
|
-d::
|
|
-D::
|
|
Remove <ref> from remote repository. The specified branch
|
|
cannot be the remote HEAD. If -d is specified the following
|
|
other conditions must also be met:
|
|
|
|
- Remote HEAD must resolve to an object that exists locally
|
|
- Specified branch resolves to an object that exists locally
|
|
- Specified branch is an ancestor of the remote HEAD
|
|
|
|
<ref>...::
|
|
The remote refs to update.
|
|
|
|
|
|
Specifying the Refs
|
|
-------------------
|
|
|
|
A '<ref>' specification can be either a single pattern, or a pair
|
|
of such patterns separated by a colon ":" (this means that a ref name
|
|
cannot have a colon in it). A single pattern '<name>' is just a
|
|
shorthand for '<name>:<name>'.
|
|
|
|
Each pattern pair consists of the source side (before the colon)
|
|
and the destination side (after the colon). The ref to be
|
|
pushed is determined by finding a match that matches the source
|
|
side, and where it is pushed is determined by using the
|
|
destination side.
|
|
|
|
- It is an error if <src> does not match exactly one of the
|
|
local refs.
|
|
|
|
- If <dst> does not match any remote ref, either
|
|
|
|
* it has to start with "refs/"; <dst> is used as the
|
|
destination literally in this case.
|
|
|
|
* <src> == <dst> and the ref that matched the <src> must not
|
|
exist in the set of remote refs; the ref matched <src>
|
|
locally is used as the name of the destination.
|
|
|
|
Without '--force', the <src> ref is stored at the remote only if
|
|
<dst> does not exist, or <dst> is a proper subset (i.e. an
|
|
ancestor) of <src>. This check, known as "fast-forward check",
|
|
is performed in order to avoid accidentally overwriting the
|
|
remote ref and lose other peoples' commits from there.
|
|
|
|
With '--force', the fast-forward check is disabled for all refs.
|
|
|
|
Optionally, a <ref> parameter can be prefixed with a plus '+' sign
|
|
to disable the fast-forward check only on that ref.
