Historically, there were three options 19`-a`, `-c` and `-t` for choosing which objects to download. They are now 20silently ignored. 21 22OPTIONS 23------- 24commit-id:: 25 Either the hash or the filename under [URL]/refs/ to 26 pull. 27 28-a, -c, -t:: 29 These options are ignored for historical reasons. 30-v:: 31 Report what is downloaded. 32 33-w <filename>:: 34 Writes the commit-id into the filename under $GIT_DIR/refs/<filename> on 35 the local end after the transfer is complete. 36 37--stdin:: 38 Instead of a commit id on the command line (which is not expected in this 39 case), 'git http-fetch' expects lines on stdin in the format 40 41 <commit-id>['\t'<filename-as-in--w>] 42 43--recover:: 44 Verify that everything reachable from target is fetched. Used after 45 an earlier fetch is interrupted. 46 47GIT 48--- 49Part of the linkgit:git[1] suite
