It is currently in section 1, but that section is intended for "Executable programs or shell commands". A more appropriate place is section 7: "Miscellaneous (including macro packages and conventions), e.g. man(7), groff(7)". This issue should have been detected earlier by `make check-docs`, but was missed due to a bug in that Makefile target (that we are about to fix).

NAME
|
|
----
|
|
git-remote-fd - Reflect smart transport stream back to caller
|
|
|
|
SYNOPSIS
|
|
--------
|
|
"fd::<infd>[,<outfd>][/<anything>]" (as URL)
|
|
|
|
DESCRIPTION
|
|
-----------
|
|
This helper uses specified file descriptors to connect to a remote Git server.
|
|
This is not meant for end users but for programs and scripts calling git
|
|
fetch, push or archive.
|
|
|
|
If only <infd> is given, it is assumed to be a bidirectional socket connected
|
|
to remote Git server (git-upload-pack, git-receive-pack or
|
|
git-upload-archive). If both <infd> and <outfd> are given, they are assumed
|
|
to be pipes connected to a remote Git server (<infd> being the inbound pipe
|
|
and <outfd> being the outbound pipe.
|
|
|
|
It is assumed that any handshaking procedures have already been completed
|
|
(such as sending service request for git://) before this helper is started.
|
|
|
|
<anything> can be any string. It is ignored. It is meant for providing
|
|
information to user in the URL in case that URL is displayed in some
|
|
context.
|
|
|
|
ENVIRONMENT VARIABLES
|
|

|
|
GIT_TRANSLOOP_DEBUG::
|
|
If set, prints debugging information about various reads/writes.
|
|
|
|
EXAMPLES
|
|
--------
|
|
`git fetch fd::17 master`::
|
|
Fetch master, using file descriptor #17 to communicate with
|
|
git-upload-pack.
|
|
|
|
`git fetch fd::17/foo master`::
|
|
Same as above.
|
|
|
|
`git push fd::7,8 master (as URL)`::
|
|
Push master, using file descriptor #7 to read data from
|
|
git-receive-pack and file descriptor #8 to write data to
|
|
same service.
|
|
|
|
`git push fd::7,8/bar master`::
|
|
Same as above.
