6 bpkg-rep-fetch - fetch list of available packages
7
9 bpkg rep-fetch|fetch [options] [(rep-name | rep-loc)...]
10
12 The rep-fetch command fetches the list of available packages for the
13 specified repositories as well as all their complement and prerequisite
14 repositories, recursively. If no repositories were specified, then all
15 the repositories previously added (bpkg-rep-add(1)) to the configura‐
16 tion are fetched.
17 The repository to fetch can be specified either as a repository name or
19 as a repository location (URL or a directory path; see bpkg-rep-add(1)
20 for details). In the latter case, the repository location is added/re‐
21 placed as if by first executing the rep-add command.
22 Note that fetching only a specific repository that happens to be a pre‐
24 requisite or complete of another repository not being fetched may re‐
25 sult in an inconsistent repository state.
