Continue the move of existing Documentation/technical/* protocol and file-format documentation into our main documentation space by moving the http-protocol.txt documentation over. I'm renaming it to "protocol-http" to be consistent with other things in the new gitformat-protocol-* namespace.

git-upload-pack(1)
|
|
==================
|
|
|
|
NAME
|
|
----
|
|
git-upload-pack - Send objects packed back to git-fetch-pack
|
|
|
|
|
|
SYNOPSIS
|
|
--------
|
|
[verse]
|
|
'git-upload-pack' [--[no-]strict] [--timeout=<n>] [--stateless-rpc]
|
|
[--advertise-refs] <directory>
|
|
|
|
DESCRIPTION
|
|
-----------
|
|
Invoked by 'git fetch-pack', learns what
|
|
objects the other side is missing, and sends them after packing.
|
|
|
|
This command is usually not invoked directly by the end user.
|
|
The UI for the protocol is on the 'git fetch-pack' side, and the
|
|
program pair is meant to be used to pull updates from a remote
|
|
repository. For push operations, see 'git send-pack'.
|
|
|
|
OPTIONS
|
|
-------
|
|
|
|
--[no-]strict::
|
|
Do not try <directory>/.git/ if <directory> is no Git directory.
|
|
|
|
--timeout=<n>::
|
|
Interrupt transfer after <n> seconds of inactivity.
|
|
|
|
--stateless-rpc::
|
|
Perform only a single read-write cycle with stdin and stdout.
|
|
This fits with the HTTP POST request processing model where
|
|
a program may read the request, write a response, and must exit.
|
|
|
|
--http-backend-info-refs::
|
|
Used by linkgit:git-http-backend[1] to serve up
|
|
`$GIT_URL/info/refs?service=git-upload-pack` requests. See
|
|
"Smart Clients" in linkgit:gitprotocol-http[5] and "HTTP
|
|
Transport" in in the linkgit:gitprotocol-v2[5]
|
|
documentation. Also understood by
|
|
linkgit:git-receive-pack[1].
|
|
|
|
<directory>::
|
|
The repository to sync from.
|
|
|
|
ENVIRONMENT
|
|
-----------
|
|
|
|
`GIT_PROTOCOL`::
|
|
Internal variable used for handshaking the wire protocol. Server
|
|
admins may need to configure some transports to allow this
|
|
variable to be passed. See the discussion in linkgit:git[1].
