git-fast-export(1) |
|
================== |
|
|
|
NAME |
|
---- |
|
git-fast-export - Git data exporter |
|
|
|
|
|
SYNOPSIS |
|
-------- |
|
'git-fast-export [options]' | 'git-fast-import' |
|
|
|
DESCRIPTION |
|
----------- |
|
This program dumps the given revisions in a form suitable to be piped |
|
into linkgit:git-fast-import[1]. |
|
|
|
You can use it as a human readable bundle replacement (see |
|
linkgit:git-bundle[1]), or as a kind of an interactive |
|
linkgit:git-filter-branch[1]. |
|
|
|
|
|
OPTIONS |
|
------- |
|
--progress=<n>:: |
|
Insert 'progress' statements every <n> objects, to be shown by |
|
linkgit:git-fast-import[1] during import. |
|
|
|
--signed-tags=(verbatim|warn|strip|abort):: |
|
Specify how to handle signed tags. Since any transformation |
|
after the export can change the tag names (which can also happen |
|
when excluding revisions) the signatures will not match. |
|
+ |
|
When asking to 'abort' (which is the default), this program will die |
|
when encountering a signed tag. With 'strip', the tags will be made |
|
unsigned, with 'verbatim', they will be silently exported |
|
and with 'warn', they will be exported, but you will see a warning. |
|
|
|
|
|
EXAMPLES |
|
-------- |
|
|
|
------------------------------------------------------------------- |
|
$ git fast-export --all | (cd /empty/repository && git fast-import) |
|
------------------------------------------------------------------- |
|
|
|
This will export the whole repository and import it into the existing |
|
empty repository. Except for reencoding commits that are not in |
|
UTF-8, it would be a one-to-one mirror. |
|
|
|
----------------------------------------------------- |
|
$ git fast-export master~5..master | |
|
sed "s|refs/heads/master|refs/heads/other|" | |
|
git fast-import |
|
----------------------------------------------------- |
|
|
|
This makes a new branch called 'other' from 'master~5..master' |
|
(i.e. if 'master' has linear history, it will take the last 5 commits). |
|
|
|
Note that this assumes that none of the blobs and commit messages |
|
referenced by that revision range contains the string |
|
'refs/heads/master'. |
|
|
|
|
|
Limitations |
|
----------- |
|
|
|
Since linkgit:git-fast-import[1] cannot tag trees, you will not be |
|
able to export the linux-2.6.git repository completely, as it contains |
|
a tag referencing a tree instead of a commit. |
