| point at branches that you are interested in. This default behavior | |
| can be changed by using the --tags or --no-tags options or by | |
| configuring remote.<name>.tagopt. By using a refspec that fetches tags | |
| explicitly, you can fetch tags that do not point into branches you | |
| are interested in as well.</p></div> | |

| <div class="paragraph"><p>The native transport (i.e. git:// URL) does no authentication and | |

| <div class="ulist"><ul> | |

| <div class="paragraph"><p>This syntax is only recognized if there are no slashes before the | |

| absolute path or <tt>./foo:bar</tt> to avoid being misinterpreted as an ssh | |
| url.</p></div> | |

| <div class="paragraph"><p>When Git doesn’t know how to handle a certain transport protocol, it | |

| regularly and repeatedly fetching from it. In order to keep track | |
| of the progress of such a remote repository, <tt>git fetch</tt> allows you | |
| to configure <tt>remote.<repository>.fetch</tt> configuration variables.</p></div> | |
| <div class="paragraph"><p>Typically such a variable may look like this:</p></div> | |
| <div class="listingblock"> | |
| <div class="content"> | |
| <pre><tt>[remote "origin"] | |
| fetch = +refs/heads/*:refs/remotes/origin/*</tt></pre> | |
| </div></div> | |
| <div class="paragraph"><p>This configuration is used in two ways:</p></div> | |
| <div class="ulist"><ul> | |
| <li> | |
| <p> | |
| When <tt>git fetch</tt> is run without specifying what branches | |
| and/or tags to fetch on the command line, e.g. <tt>git fetch origin</tt> | |
| or <tt>git fetch</tt>, <tt>remote.<repository>.fetch</tt> values are used as | |
| the refspecs---they specify which refs to fetch and which local refs | |
| to update. The example above will fetch | |
| all branches that exist in the <tt>origin</tt> (i.e. any ref that matches | |
| the left-hand side of the value, <tt>refs/heads/*</tt>) and update the | |
| corresponding remote-tracking branches in the <tt>refs/remotes/origin/*</tt> | |
| hierarchy. | |
| </p> | |
| </li> | |
| <li> | |
| <p> | |
| When <tt>git fetch</tt> is run with explicit branches and/or tags | |
| to fetch on the command line, e.g. <tt>git fetch origin master</tt>, the | |
| <refspec>s given on the command line determine what are to be | |
| fetched (e.g. <tt>master</tt> in the example, | |
| which is a short-hand for <tt>master:</tt>, which in turn means | |
| "fetch the <em>master</em> branch but I do not explicitly say what | |
| remote-tracking branch to update with it from the command line"), | |
| and the example command will | |
| fetch <em>only</em> the <em>master</em> branch. The <tt>remote.<repository>.fetch</tt> | |
| values determine which | |
| remote-tracking branch, if any, is updated. When used in this | |
| way, the <tt>remote.<repository>.fetch</tt> values do not have any | |
| effect in deciding <em>what</em> gets fetched (i.e. the values are not | |
| used as refspecs when the command-line lists refspecs); they are | |
| only used to decide <em>where</em> the refs that are fetched are stored | |
| by acting as a mapping. | |
| </p> | |
| </li> | |
| </ul></div> | |
| <div class="paragraph"><p>The latter use of the <tt>remote.<repository>.fetch</tt> values can be | |
| overridden by giving the <tt>--refmap=<refspec></tt> parameter(s) on the | |
| command line.</p></div> | |
