NAME

6       git-upload-archive - Send archive back to git-archive
7

SYNOPSIS

9       git upload-archive <directory>
10
11

DESCRIPTION

13       Invoked by git archive --remote and sends a generated archive to the
14       other end over the Git protocol.
15
16       This command is usually not invoked directly by the end user. The UI
17       for the protocol is on the git archive side, and the program pair is
18       meant to be used to get an archive from a remote repository.

SECURITY

21       In order to protect the privacy of objects that have been removed from
22       history but may not yet have been pruned, git-upload-archive avoids
23       serving archives for commits and trees that are not reachable from the
24       repository’s refs. However, because calculating object reachability is
25       computationally expensive, git-upload-archive implements a stricter but
26       easier-to-check set of rules:
27
28        1. Clients may request a commit or tree that is pointed to directly by
29           a ref. E.g., git archive --remote=origin v1.0.
30
31        2. Clients may request a sub-tree within a commit or tree using the
32           ref:path syntax. E.g., git archive --remote=origin
33           v1.0:Documentation.
34
35        3. Clients may not use other sha1 expressions, even if the end result
36           is reachable. E.g., neither a relative commit like master^ nor a
37           literal sha1 like abcd1234 is allowed, even if the result is
38           reachable from the refs.
39
40       Note that rule 3 disallows many cases that do not have any privacy
41       implications. These rules are subject to change in future versions of
42       git, and the server accessed by git archive --remote may or may not
43       follow these exact rules.
44
45       If the config option uploadArchive.allowUnreachable is true, these
46       rules are ignored, and clients may use arbitrary sha1 expressions. This
47       is useful if you do not care about the privacy of unreachable objects,
48       or if your object database is already publicly available for access via
49       non-smart-http.
