| git-http-fetch - Download from a remote Git repository via HTTP |
| 'git http-fetch' [-c] [-t] [-a] [-d] [-v] [-w filename] [--recover] [--stdin] <commit> <url> |
| 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 |
| Either the hash or the filename under [URL]/refs/ to |
| These options are ignored for historical reasons. |
| Report what is downloaded. |
| Writes the commit-id into the filename under $GIT_DIR/refs/<filename> on |
| the local end after the transfer is complete. |
| 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>] |
| Verify that everything reachable from target is fetched. Used after |
| an earlier fetch is interrupted. |
