NAME

6       git-http-fetch - Download from a remote Git repository via HTTP

SYNOPSIS

9       git http-fetch [-c] [-t] [-a] [-d] [-v] [-w filename] [--recover] [--stdin] <commit> <url>

DESCRIPTION

13       Downloads a remote Git repository via HTTP.
14
15       This command always gets all objects. Historically, there were three
16       options -a, -c and -t for choosing which objects to download. They are
17       now silently ignored.
18

OPTIONS

20       commit-id
21           Either the hash or the filename under [URL]/refs/ to pull.
22
23       -a, -c, -t
24           These options are ignored for historical reasons.
25
26       -v
27           Report what is downloaded.
28
29       -w <filename>
30           Writes the commit-id into the filename under
31           $GIT_DIR/refs/<filename> on the local end after the transfer is
32           complete.
33
34       --stdin
35           Instead of a commit id on the command line (which is not expected
36           in this case), git http-fetch expects lines on stdin in the format
37
38               <commit-id>['\t'<filename-as-in--w>]
39
40       --recover
41           Verify that everything reachable from target is fetched. Used after
42           an earlier fetch is interrupted.
