  21OPTIONS
  22-------
  23-c::
  24        Get the commit objects.
  25-t::
  26        Get trees associated with the commit objects.
  27-a::
  28        Get all the objects.
  29-v::
  30        Report what is downloaded.
  31-s::
  32        Instead of regular file-to-file copying use symbolic links to the objects
  33        in the remote repository.
  34-l::
  35        Before attempting symlinks (if -s is specified) or file-to-file copying the
  36        remote objects, try to hardlink the remote objects into the local
  37        repository.
  38-n::
  39        Never attempt to file-to-file copy remote objects.  Only useful with
  40        -s or -l command-line options.
  41
  42-w <filename>::
  43        Writes the commit-id into the filename under $GIT_DIR/refs/<filename> on
  44        the local end after the transfer is complete.
  45
  46--stdin::
  47        Instead of a commit id on the command line (which is not expected in this
  48        case), 'git-local-fetch' expects lines on stdin in the format
  49
  50                <commit-id>['\t'<filename-as-in--w>]
  51
  52--recover::
  53        Verify that everything reachable from target is fetched.  Used after
  54        an earlier fetch is interrupted.
