===================== |

NAME |
|
---- |
|
git-remote-helpers - Helper programs for interoperation with remote git |
|
|
|
SYNOPSIS |
|
-------- |
|
'git remote-<transport>' <remote> |
|
|
|
DESCRIPTION |
|
----------- |
|
|
|
These programs are normally not used directly by end users, but are |
|
invoked by various git programs that interact with remote repositories |
|
when the repository they would operate on will be accessed using |
|
transport code not linked into the main git binary. Various particular |
|
helper programs will behave as documented here. |
|
|
|
COMMANDS |
|
-------- |
|
|
|
Commands are given by the caller on the helper's standard input, one per line. |
|
|
|
'capabilities':: |
|
Lists the capabilities of the helper, one per line, ending |
|
with a blank line. |
|
|
|
'list':: |
|
Lists the refs, one per line, in the format "<value> <name> |
|
[<attr> ...]". The value may be a hex sha1 hash, "@<dest>" for |
|
a symref, or "?" to indicate that the helper could not get the |
|
value of the ref. A space-separated list of attributes follows |
|
the name; unrecognized attributes are ignored. After the |
|
complete list, outputs a blank line. |
|
|
|
'fetch' <sha1> <name>:: |
|
Fetches the given object, writing the necessary objects to the |
|
database. Outputs a blank line when the fetch is |
|
complete. Only objects which were reported in the ref list |
|
with a sha1 may be fetched this way. |
|
+ |
|
Supported if the helper has the "fetch" capability. |
|
|
|
If a fatal error occurs, the program writes the error message to |
|
stderr and exits. The caller should expect that a suitable error |
|
message has been printed if the child closes the connection without |
|
completing a valid response for the current command. |
|
|
|
Additional commands may be supported, as may be determined from |
|
capabilities reported by the helper. |
|
|
|
