NAME

git-local-fetch - Duplicates another git repository on a local system

SYNOPSIS

git-local-fetch [-c] [-t] [-a] [-d] [-v] [-w filename] [--recover] [-l] [-s] [-n] commit-id path

DESCRIPTION

Duplicates another git repository on a local system.

OPTIONS

-c

Get the commit objects.

-t

Get trees associated with the commit objects.

-a

Get all the objects.

-v

Report what is downloaded.

-w <filename>

Writes the commit-id into the filename under $GIT_DIR/refs/<filename> on the local end after the transfer is complete.

--stdin

Instead of a commit id on the commandline (which is not expected in this case), git-local-fetch expects lines on stdin in the format

<commit-id>['\t'<filename-as-in--w>]
