|
|
|
A dumb server that does not do on-the-fly pack generations must
|
2005-07-24 00:54:56 +00:00
|
|
|
have some auxiliary information files in $GIT_DIR/info and
|
|
|
|
|
$GIT_OBJECT_DIRECTORY/info directories to help clients discover
|
2005-12-17 19:39:39 +00:00
|
|
|
what references and packs the server has. This command
|
|
|
|
|
generates such auxiliary files.
