GIT-UPLOAD-PACK(1)               Git Manual               GIT-UPLOAD-PACK(1)

NAME top

       git-upload-pack - Send objects packed back to git-fetch-pack

SYNOPSIS top

       git-upload-pack [--[no-]strict] [--timeout=<n>] [--stateless-rpc]
                         [--advertise-refs] <directory>

DESCRIPTION top

       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 top

       --[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.

       --advertise-refs
           Only the initial ref advertisement is output, and the program
           exits immediately. This fits with the HTTP GET request model,
           where no request content is received but a response must be
           produced.

       <directory>
           The repository to sync from.
