Older versions of AsciiDoc would convert the "--" in "--option" into an emdash. According to565e135(Documentation: quote double-dash for AsciiDoc, 2011-06-29), this is fixed in AsciiDoc 8.3.0. According tobf17126, we don't support anything older than 8.4.1 anyway, so we no longer need to worry about quoting. Even though this does not change the output at all, there are a few good reasons to drop the quoting: 1. It makes the source prettier to read. 2. We don't quote consistently, which may be confusing when reading the source. 3. Asciidoctor does not like the quoting, and renders a literal backslash.

NAME

|
----
|
|
git-send-pack - Push objects over Git protocol to another repository
|
|
|
|
|
|
SYNOPSIS
|
|
--------
|
|
[verse]
|
|
'git send-pack' [--all] [--dry-run] [--force] [--receive-pack=<git-receive-pack>] [--verbose] [--thin] [<host>:]<directory> [<ref>...]
|
|
|
|
DESCRIPTION
|
|
-----------
|
|
Usually you would want to use 'git push', which is a
|
|
higher-level wrapper of this command, instead. See linkgit:git-push[1].
|
|
|
|
Invokes 'git-receive-pack' on a possibly remote repository, and
|
|
updates it from the current repository, sending named refs.
|
|
|
|
|
|
OPTIONS
|
|
-------
|
|
--receive-pack=<git-receive-pack>::
|
|
Path to the 'git-receive-pack' program on the remote
|
|
end. Sometimes useful when pushing to a remote
|
|
repository over ssh, and you do not have the program in
|
|
a directory on the default $PATH.
|
|
|
|
--exec=<git-receive-pack>::
|
|
Same as --receive-pack=<git-receive-pack>.
|
|
|
|
--all::
|
|
Instead of explicitly specifying which refs to update,
|
|
update all heads that locally exist.
|
|
|
|
--stdin::
|
|
Take the list of refs from stdin, one per line. If there
|
|
are refs specified on the command line in addition to this
|
|
option, then the refs from stdin are processed after those
|
|
on the command line.
|
|
+
|
|
If '--stateless-rpc' is specified together with this option then
|
|
the list of refs must be in packet format (pkt-line). Each ref must
|
|
be in a separate packet, and the list must end with a flush packet.
|
|
|
|
--dry-run::
|
|
Do everything except actually send the updates.
|
|
|
|
--force::
|
|
Usually, the command refuses to update a remote ref that
|
|
is not an ancestor of the local ref used to overwrite it.
|
|
This flag disables the check. What this means is that
|
|
the remote repository can lose commits; use it with
|
|
care.
|
|
|
|
--verbose::
|
|
Run verbosely.
|
|
|
|
--thin::
|
|
Send a "thin" pack, which records objects in deltified form based
|
|
on objects not included in the pack to reduce network traffic.
|
|
|
|
<host>::
|
|
A remote host to house the repository. When this
|
|
part is specified, 'git-receive-pack' is invoked via
|
|
ssh.
|
|
|
|
<directory>::
|
|
The repository to update.
|
|
|
|
<ref>...::
|
|
The remote refs to update.
|
|
|
|
|
|
Specifying the Refs
|
|
-------------------
|
|
|
|
There are three ways to specify which refs to update on the
|
|
remote end.
|
|
|
|
With '--all' flag, all refs that exist locally are transferred to
|
|
the remote side. You cannot specify any '<ref>' if you use
|
|
this flag.
|
|
|
|
Without '--all' and without any '<ref>', the heads that exist
|
|
both on the local side and on the remote side are updated.
|
|
|
|
When one or more '<ref>' are specified explicitly (whether on the
|
|
command line or via `--stdin`), it can be either a
|
|
single pattern, or a pair of such pattern separated by a colon
|
|
":" (this means that a ref name cannot have a colon in it). A
|
|
single pattern '<name>' is just a shorthand for '<name>:<name>'.
|
|
|
|
Each pattern pair consists of the source side (before the colon)
|
|
and the destination side (after the colon). The ref to be
|
|
pushed is determined by finding a match that matches the source
|
|
side, and where it is pushed is determined by using the
|
|
destination side. The rules used to match a ref are the same
|
|
rules used by 'git rev-parse' to resolve a symbolic ref
|
|
name. See linkgit:git-rev-parse[1].
|
|
|
|
- It is an error if <src> does not match exactly one of the
|
|
local refs.
|
|
|
|
- It is an error if <dst> matches more than one remote refs.
|
|
|
|
- If <dst> does not match any remote ref, either
|
|
|
|
* it has to start with "refs/"; <dst> is used as the
|
|
destination literally in this case.
|
|
|
|
* <src> == <dst> and the ref that matched the <src> must not
|
|
exist in the set of remote refs; the ref matched <src>
|
|
locally is used as the name of the destination.
|
|
|
|
Without '--force', the <src> ref is stored at the remote only if
|
|
<dst> does not exist, or <dst> is a proper subset (i.e. an
|
|
ancestor) of <src>. This check, known as "fast-forward check",
|
|
is performed in order to avoid accidentally overwriting the
|
|
remote ref and lose other peoples' commits from there.
|
|
|
|
With '--force', the fast-forward check is disabled for all refs.
|
|
|
|
Optionally, a <ref> parameter can be prefixed with a plus '+' sign
|
|
to disable the fast-forward check only on that ref.
