| <div class="sectionbody"> | |
| <div class="paragraph"><p>Some workflows require that one or more branches of development on one | |
| machine be replicated on another machine, but the two machines cannot | |
| be directly connected, and therefore the interactive Git protocols (git, | |
| ssh, rsync, http) cannot be used. This command provides support for | |
| <em>git fetch</em> and <em>git pull</em> to operate by packaging objects and references | |
| in an archive at the originating machine, then importing those into | |
| another repository using <em>git fetch</em> and <em>git pull</em> | |
| after moving the archive by some means (e.g., by sneakernet). As no | |
| direct connection between the repositories exists, the user must specify a | |
| basis for the bundle that is held by the destination repository: the | |
| bundle assumes that all objects in the basis are already in the | |
| destination repository.</p></div> | |

| <em>git-rev-list-args</em> arguments to define the bundle contents. | |

| <p> | |
| Used to check that a bundle file is valid and will apply | |
| cleanly to the current repository. This includes checks on the | |
| bundle format itself as well as checking that the prerequisite | |
| commits exist and are fully linked in the current repository. | |
| <em>git bundle</em> prints a list of missing commits, if any, and exits | |
| with a non-zero status. | |
| </p> | |
| </dd> | |
| <dt class="hdlist1"> | |

| <p> | |
| Lists the references defined in the bundle. If followed by a | |
| list of references, only references matching those given are | |
| printed out. | |

| <dt class="hdlist1"> | |

| <p> | |
| Passes the objects in the bundle to <em>git index-pack</em> | |
| for storage in the repository, then prints the names of all | |
| defined references. If a list of references is given, only | |
| references matching those in the list are printed. This command is | |
| really plumbing, intended to be called only by <em>git fetch</em>. | |

| <dt class="hdlist1"> | |
| <git-rev-list-args> | |
| </dt> | |
| <dd> | |
| <p> | |
| A list of arguments, acceptable to <em>git rev-parse</em> and | |
| <em>git rev-list</em> (and containing a named ref, see SPECIFYING REFERENCES | |
| below), that specifies the specific objects and references | |
| to transport. For example, <code>master~10..master</code> causes the | |
| current master reference to be packaged along with all objects | |
| added since its 10th ancestor commit. There is no explicit | |
| limit to the number of references and objects that may be | |
| packaged. | |
| </p> | |
| </dd> | |
| <dt class="hdlist1"> | |
| [<refname>…] | |
| </dt> | |
| <dd> | |
| <p> | |
| A list of references used to limit the references reported as | |
| available. This is principally of use to <em>git fetch</em>, which | |
| expects to receive only those references asked for and not | |
| necessarily everything in the pack (in this case, <em>git bundle</em> acts | |
| like <em>git fetch-pack</em>). | |

| <h2 id="_specifying_references">SPECIFYING REFERENCES</h2> | |
| <div class="sectionbody"> | |
| <div class="paragraph"><p><em>git bundle</em> will only package references that are shown by | |
| <em>git show-ref</em>: this includes heads, tags, and remote heads. References | |
| such as <code>master~1</code> cannot be packaged, but are perfectly suitable for | |
| defining the basis. More than one reference may be packaged, and more | |
| than one basis can be specified. The objects packaged are those not | |
| contained in the union of the given bases. Each basis can be | |
| specified explicitly (e.g. <code>^master~10</code>), or implicitly (e.g. | |
| <code>master~10..master</code>, <code>--since=10.days.ago master</code>).</p></div> | |
| <div class="paragraph"><p>It is very important that the basis used be held by the destination. | |
| It is okay to err on the side of caution, causing the bundle file | |
| to contain objects already in the destination, as these are ignored | |
| when unpacking at the destination.</p></div> | |
| </div> | |
| </div> | |
| <div class="sect1"> | |
| <h2 id="_example">EXAMPLE</h2> | |
| <div class="sectionbody"> | |
| <div class="paragraph"><p>Assume you want to transfer the history from a repository R1 on machine A | |
| to another repository R2 on machine B. | |
| For whatever reason, direct connection between A and B is not allowed, | |
| but we can move data from A to B via some mechanism (CD, email, etc.). | |
| We want to update R2 with development made on the branch master in R1.</p></div> | |
| <div class="paragraph"><p>To bootstrap the process, you can first create a bundle that does not have | |
| any basis. You can use a tag to remember up to what commit you last | |
| processed, in order to make it easy to later update the other repository | |
| with an incremental bundle:</p></div> | |
| <div class="listingblock"> | |
| <div class="content"> | |
| <pre><code>machineA$ cd R1 | |
| machineA$ git bundle create file.bundle master | |
| machineA$ git tag -f lastR2bundle master</code></pre> | |
| </div></div> | |
| <div class="paragraph"><p>Then you transfer file.bundle to the target machine B. Because this | |
| bundle does not require any existing object to be extracted, you can | |
| create a new repository on machine B by cloning from it:</p></div> | |
| <div class="listingblock"> | |
| <div class="content"> | |
| <pre><code>machineB$ git clone -b master /home/me/tmp/file.bundle R2</code></pre> | |
| </div></div> | |
| <div class="paragraph"><p>This will define a remote called "origin" in the resulting repository that | |
| lets you fetch and pull from the bundle. The $GIT_DIR/config file in R2 will | |
| have an entry like this:</p></div> | |
| <div class="listingblock"> | |
| <div class="content"> | |
| <pre><code>[remote "origin"] | |
| url = /home/me/tmp/file.bundle | |
| fetch = refs/heads/*:refs/remotes/origin/*</code></pre> | |
| </div></div> | |
| <div class="paragraph"><p>To update the resulting mine.git repository, you can fetch or pull after | |
| replacing the bundle stored at /home/me/tmp/file.bundle with incremental | |
| updates.</p></div> | |
| <div class="paragraph"><p>After working some more in the original repository, you can create an | |
| incremental bundle to update the other repository:</p></div> | |
| <div class="listingblock"> | |
| <div class="content"> | |
| <pre><code>machineA$ cd R1 | |
| machineA$ git bundle create file.bundle lastR2bundle..master | |
| machineA$ git tag -f lastR2bundle master</code></pre> | |
| </div></div> | |
| <div class="paragraph"><p>You then transfer the bundle to the other machine to replace | |
| /home/me/tmp/file.bundle, and pull from it.</p></div> | |
| <div class="listingblock"> | |
| <div class="content"> | |
| <pre><code>machineB$ cd R2 | |
| machineB$ git pull</code></pre> | |
| </div></div> | |
| <div class="paragraph"><p>If you know up to what commit the intended recipient repository should | |
| have the necessary objects, you can use that knowledge to specify the | |
| basis, giving a cut-off point to limit the revisions and objects that go | |
| in the resulting bundle. The previous example used the lastR2bundle tag | |
| for this purpose, but you can use any other options that you would give to | |
| the <a href="git-log.html">git-log(1)</a> command. Here are more examples:</p></div> | |
| <div class="paragraph"><p>You can use a tag that is present in both:</p></div> | |
| <div class="listingblock"> | |
| <div class="content"> | |
| <pre><code>$ git bundle create mybundle v1.0.0..master</code></pre> | |
| </div></div> | |
| <div class="paragraph"><p>You can use a basis based on time:</p></div> | |
| <div class="listingblock"> | |
| <div class="content"> | |
| <pre><code>$ git bundle create mybundle --since=10.days master</code></pre> | |
| </div></div> | |
| <div class="paragraph"><p>You can use the number of commits:</p></div> | |
| <div class="listingblock"> | |
| <div class="content"> | |
| <pre><code>$ git bundle create mybundle -10 master</code></pre> | |
| </div></div> | |
| <div class="paragraph"><p>You can run <code>git-bundle verify</code> to see if you can extract from a bundle | |
| that was created with a basis:</p></div> | |
| <div class="listingblock"> | |
| <div class="content"> | |
| <pre><code>$ git bundle verify mybundle</code></pre> | |
| </div></div> | |
| <div class="paragraph"><p>This will list what commits you must have in order to extract from the | |
| bundle and will error out if you do not have them.</p></div> | |
| <div class="paragraph"><p>A bundle from a recipient repository’s point of view is just like a | |
| regular repository which it fetches or pulls from. You can, for example, map | |
| references when fetching:</p></div> | |
| <div class="listingblock"> | |
| <div class="content"> | |
| <pre><code>$ git fetch mybundle master:localRef</code></pre> | |
| </div></div> | |
| <div class="paragraph"><p>You can also see what references it offers:</p></div> | |
| <div class="listingblock"> | |
| <div class="content"> | |
| <pre><code>$ git ls-remote mybundle</code></pre> | |
| </div></div> | |
