NAME

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

SYNOPSIS

9       git upload-archive <directory>
10

DESCRIPTION

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

SECURITY

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