.SH "NAME"
git-http-fetch \- Download from a remote Git repository via HTTP
.SH "SYNOPSIS"
.sp
.nf
\fIgit http\-fetch\fR [\-c] [\-t] [\-a] [\-d] [\-v] [\-w <filename>] [\-\-recover] [\-\-stdin | \-\-packfile=<hash> | <commit>] <URL>
.fi
.sp
.SH "DESCRIPTION"
.sp
Downloads a remote Git repository via HTTP\&.
.sp
This command always gets all objects\&. Historically, there were three options \fB\-a\fR, \fB\-c\fR and \fB\-t\fR for choosing which objects to download\&. They are now silently ignored\&.
.SH "OPTIONS"
.PP
commit\-id
.RS 4
Either the hash or the filename under [URL]/refs/ to pull\&.
.RE
.PP
\-a, \-c, \-t
.RS 4
These options are ignored for historical reasons\&.
.RE
.PP
\-v
.RS 4
Report what is downloaded\&.
.RE
.PP
\-w <filename>
.RS 4
Writes the commit\-id into the specified filename under $GIT_DIR/refs/<filename> on the local end after the transfer is complete\&.
.RE
.PP
\-\-stdin
.RS 4
Instead of a commit id on the command line (which is not expected in this case),
\fIgit http\-fetch\fR
expects lines on stdin in the format
.sp
.if n \{\
.RS 4
.\}
.nf
<commit\-id>[\*(Aq\et\*(Aq<filename\-as\-in\-\-w>]
.fi
.if n \{\
.RE
.\}
.RE
.PP
\-\-packfile=<hash>
.RS 4
For internal use only\&. Instead of a commit id on the command line (which is not expected in this case),
\fIgit http\-fetch\fR
fetches the packfile directly at the given URL and uses index\-pack to generate corresponding \&.idx and \&.keep files\&. The hash is used to determine the name of the temporary file and is arbitrary\&. The output of index\-pack is printed to stdout\&. Requires \-\-index\-pack\-args\&.
.RE
.PP
\-\-index\-pack\-args=<args>
.RS 4
For internal use only\&. The command to run on the contents of the downloaded pack\&. Arguments are URL\-encoded separated by spaces\&.
.RE
.PP
\-\-recover
.RS 4
Verify that everything reachable from target is fetched\&. Used after an earlier fetch is interrupted\&.
