--perl-regexp::
- Consider the limiting patterns to be Perl-compatible regular expressions.
- Requires libpcre to be compiled in.

++
+Support for these types of regular expressions is an optional

--remove-empty::
Stop when a given path disappears from the tree.
for all following revision specifiers, up to the next `--not`.
--all::
- Pretend as if all the refs in `refs/` are listed on the
- command line as '<commit>'.
+ Pretend as if all the refs in `refs/`, along with `HEAD`, are

--branches[=<pattern>]::
Pretend as if all the refs in `refs/heads` are listed
Pretend as if all objects mentioned by reflogs are listed on the
command line as `<commit>`.
+--single-worktree::
+ By default, all working trees will be examined by the
+ following options when there are more than one (see
+ linkgit:git-worktree[1]): `--all`, `--reflog` and
+ `--indexed-objects`.
+ This option forces them to examine the current working tree

Upon seeing an invalid object name in the input, pretend as if
the bad input was not given.
all object IDs which I need to download if I have the commit
object _bar_ but not _foo_''.
+--in-commit-order::
+ Print tree and blob ids in order of the commits. The tree
+ and blob ids are printed after they are first referenced
+ by a commit.
+
--objects-edge::
Similar to `--objects`, but also print the IDs of excluded
commits prefixed with a ``-'' character. This is used by
--unpacked::
Only useful with `--objects`; print the object IDs that are not
in packs.
+
+--filter=<filter-spec>::
+ Only useful with one of the `--objects*`; omits objects (usually
+ blobs) from the list of printed objects. The '<filter-spec>'
+ may be one of the following:
++
+The form '--filter=blob:none' omits all blobs.
++
+The form '--filter=blob:limit=<n>[kmg]' omits blobs larger than n bytes
+or units. n may be zero. The suffixes k, m, and g can be used to name
+units in KiB, MiB, or GiB. For example, 'blob:limit=1k' is the same
+as 'blob:limit=1024'.
++
+The form '--filter=sparse:oid=<blob-ish>' uses a sparse-checkout
+specification contained in the blob (or blob-expression) '<blob-ish>'
+to omit blobs that would not be not required for a sparse checkout on
+the requested refs.
++
+The form '--filter=sparse:path=<path>' similarly uses a sparse-checkout
+specification contained in <path>.
+
+--no-filter::
+ Turn off any previous `--filter=` argument.
+
+--filter-print-omitted::
+ Only useful with `--filter=`; prints a list of the objects omitted
+ by the filter. Object IDs are prefixed with a ``~'' character.
+
+--missing=<missing-action>::
+ A debug option to help with future "partial clone" development.
+ This option specifies how missing objects are handled.
++
+The form '--missing=error' requests that rev-list stop with an error if
+a missing object is encountered. This is the default action.
++
+The form '--missing=allow-any' will allow object traversal to continue
+if a missing object is encountered. Missing objects will silently be
+omitted from the results.
++
+The form '--missing=print' is like 'allow-any', but will also print a
+list of the missing objects. Object IDs are prefixed with a ``?'' character.
