DESCRIPTION
Downloads a remote Git repository via HTTP.
This command always gets all objects. Historically, there were three options
-a
, -c
and -t
for choosing which objects to download. They are now
silently ignored.
OPTIONS
- commit-id
-
Either the hash or the filename under [URL]/refs/ to pull.
- -a, -c, -t
-
These options are ignored for historical reasons.
- -v
-
Report what is downloaded.
- -w <filename>
-
Writes the commit-id into the filename under $GIT_DIR/refs/<filename> on the local end after the transfer is complete.
- --stdin
-
Instead of a commit id on the command line (which is not expected in this case), git http-fetch expects lines on stdin in the format
<commit-id>['\t'<filename-as-in--w>]
- --recover
-
Verify that everything reachable from target is fetched. Used after an earlier fetch is interrupted.
