The names of git commands are not meant to be entered at the
commandline; they are just names. So we render them in italics,
as is usual for command names in manpages.
Using
doit () {
perl -e 'for (<>) { s/\`(git-[^\`.]*)\`/'\''\1'\''/g; print }'
}
for i in git*.txt config.txt diff*.txt blame*.txt fetch*.txt i18n.txt \
merge*.txt pretty*.txt pull*.txt rev*.txt urls*.txt
do
doit <"$i" >"$i+" && mv "$i+" "$i"
done

REMOTES[[REMOTES]]
|
|
------------------
|
|
|
|
The name of one of the following can be used instead
|
|
of a URL as `<repository>` argument:
|
|
|
|
* a remote in the git configuration file: `$GIT_DIR/config`,
|
|
* a file in the `$GIT_DIR/remotes` directory, or
|
|
* a file in the `$GIT_DIR/branches` directory.
|
|
|
|
All of these also allow you to omit the refspec from the command line
|
|
because they each contain a refspec which git will use by default.
|
|
|
|
Named remote in configuration file
|
|
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
|
|
|
|
You can choose to provide the name of a remote which you had previously
|
|
configured using linkgit:git-remote[1], linkgit:git-config[1]
|
|
or even by a manual edit to the `$GIT_DIR/config` file. The URL of
|
|
this remote will be used to access the repository. The refspec
|
|
of this remote will be used by default when you do
|
|
not provide a refspec on the command line. The entry in the
|
|
config file would appear like this:
|
|
|
|
------------
|
|
[remote "<name>"]
|
|
url = <url>
|
|
push = <refspec>
|
|
fetch = <refspec>
|
|
------------
|
|
|
|
|
|
Named file in `$GIT_DIR/remotes`
|
|
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
|
|
|
|
You can choose to provide the name of a
|
|
file in `$GIT_DIR/remotes`. The URL
|
|
in this file will be used to access the repository. The refspec
|
|
in this file will be used as default when you do not
|
|
provide a refspec on the command line. This file should have the
|
|
following format:
|
|
|
|
------------
|
|
URL: one of the above URL format
|
|
Push: <refspec>
|
|
Pull: <refspec>
|
|
|
|
------------
|
|
|
|
`Push:` lines are used by 'git-push' and
|
|
`Pull:` lines are used by 'git-pull' and 'git-fetch'.
|
|
Multiple `Push:` and `Pull:` lines may
|
|
be specified for additional branch mappings.
|
|
|
|
Named file in `$GIT_DIR/branches`
|
|
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
|
|
|
|
You can choose to provide the name of a
|
|
file in `$GIT_DIR/branches`.
|
|
The URL in this file will be used to access the repository.
|
|
This file should have the following format:
|
|
|
|
|
|
------------
|
|
<url>#<head>
|
|
------------
|
|
|
|
`<url>` is required; `#<head>` is optional.
|
|
When you do not provide a refspec on the command line,
|
|
git will use the following refspec, where `<head>` defaults to `master`,
|
|
and `<repository>` is the name of this file
|
|
you provided in the command line.
|
|
|
|
------------
|
|
refs/heads/<head>:<repository>
|
|
