DESCRIPTION
-----------
-Usually you would want to use gitlink:git-fetch[1] which is a
-higher level wrapper of this command instead.
+Usually you would want to use 'git-fetch', which is a
+higher level wrapper of this command, instead.
-Invokes 'git-upload-pack' on a potentially remote repository,
+Invokes 'git-upload-pack' on a possibly remote repository
and asks it to send objects missing from this repository, to
update the named heads. The list of commits available locally
is found out by scanning local $GIT_DIR/refs/ and sent to
OPTIONS
-------
-\--all::
+--all::
Fetch all remote refs.
-\--quiet, \-q::
+-q::
+--quiet::
Pass '-q' flag to 'git-unpack-objects'; this makes the
cloning process less verbose.
-\--keep, \-k::
+-k::
+--keep::
Do not invoke 'git-unpack-objects' on received data, but
create a single packfile out of it instead, and store it
in the object database. If provided twice then the pack is
locked against repacking.
-\--thin::
+--thin::
Spend extra cycles to minimize the number of objects to be sent.
Use it on slower connection.
-\--upload-pack=<git-upload-pack>::
+--include-tag::
+ If the remote side supports it, annotated tags objects will
+ be downloaded on the same connection as the other objects if
+ the object the tag references is downloaded. The caller must
+ otherwise determine the tags this option made available.
+
+--upload-pack=<git-upload-pack>::
Use this to specify the path to 'git-upload-pack' on the
remote side, if is not found on your $PATH.
Installations of sshd ignores the user's environment
shells by having a lean .bashrc file (they set most of
the things up in .bash_profile).
-\--exec=<git-upload-pack>::
+--exec=<git-upload-pack>::
Same as \--upload-pack=<git-upload-pack>.
-\--depth=<n>::
+--depth=<n>::
Limit fetching to ancestor-chains not longer than n.
-\--no-progress::
+--no-progress::
Do not show the progress.
-\-v::
+-v::
Run verbosely.
<host>::
