<h2>NAME</h2> | |
<div class="sectionbody"> | |
<p>git-remote - | |
manage set of tracked repositories | |
</p> | |
</div> | |
</div> | |
<h2>SYNOPSIS</h2> | |
<div class="sectionbody"> | |
<div class="verseblock"> | |
<div class="content"><em>git remote</em> [-v | --verbose] | |
<em>git remote add</em> [-t <branch>] [-m <master>] [-f] [--mirror] <name> <url> | |
<em>git remote rename</em> <old> <new> | |
<em>git remote rm</em> <name> | |
<em>git remote set-head</em> <name> [-a | -d | <branch>] | |
<em>git remote show</em> [-n] <name> | |
<em>git remote prune</em> [-n | --dry-run] <name> | |
<em>git remote update</em> [group]</div></div> | |
</div> | |
<h2 id="_description">DESCRIPTION</h2> | |
<div class="sectionbody"> | |
<div class="para"><p>Manage the set of repositories ("remotes") whose branches you track.</p></div> | |
</div> | |
<h2 id="_options">OPTIONS</h2> | |
<div class="sectionbody"> | |
<div class="vlist"><dl> | |
<dt> | |
-v | |
</dt> | |
<dt> | |
--verbose | |
</dt> | |
<dd> | |
<p> | |
Be a little more verbose and show remote url after name. | |
</p> | |
</dd> | |
</dl></div> | |
</div> | |
<h2 id="_commands">COMMANDS</h2> | |
<div class="sectionbody"> | |
<div class="para"><p>With no arguments, shows a list of existing remotes. Several | |
subcommands are available to perform operations on the remotes.</p></div> | |
<div class="vlist"><dl> | |
<dt> | |
<em>add</em> | |
</dt> | |
<dd> | |
<p> | |
Adds a remote named <name> for the repository at | |
<url>. The command <tt>git fetch <name></tt> can then be used to create and | |
update remote-tracking branches <name>/<branch>. | |
</p> | |
<div class="para"><p>With <tt>-f</tt> option, <tt>git fetch <name></tt> is run immediately after | |
the remote information is set up.</p></div> | |
<div class="para"><p>With <tt>-t <branch></tt> option, instead of the default glob | |
refspec for the remote to track all branches under | |
<tt>$GIT_DIR/remotes/<name>/</tt>, a refspec to track only <tt><branch></tt> | |
is created. You can give more than one <tt>-t <branch></tt> to track | |
multiple branches without grabbing all branches.</p></div> | |
<div class="para"><p>With <tt>-m <master></tt> option, <tt>$GIT_DIR/remotes/<name>/HEAD</tt> is set | |
up to point at remote's <tt><master></tt> branch. See also the set-head command.</p></div> | |
<div class="para"><p>In mirror mode, enabled with <tt>--mirror</tt>, the refs will not be stored | |
in the <em>refs/remotes/</em> namespace, but in <em>refs/heads/</em>. This option | |
only makes sense in bare repositories. If a remote uses mirror | |
mode, furthermore, <tt>git push</tt> will always behave as if <tt>--mirror</tt> | |
was passed.</p></div> | |
</dd> | |
<dt> | |
<em>rename</em> | |
</dt> | |
<dd> | |
<p> | |
Rename the remote named <old> to <new>. All remote tracking branches and | |
configuration settings for the remote are updated. | |
</p> | |
<div class="para"><p>In case <old> and <new> are the same, and <old> is a file under | |
<tt>$GIT_DIR/remotes</tt> or <tt>$GIT_DIR/branches</tt>, the remote is converted to | |
the configuration file format.</p></div> | |
</dd> | |
<dt> | |
<em>rm</em> | |
</dt> | |
<dd> | |
<p> | |
Remove the remote named <name>. All remote tracking branches and | |
configuration settings for the remote are removed. | |
</p> | |
</dd> | |
<dt> | |
<em>set-head</em> | |
</dt> | |
<dd> | |
<p> | |
Sets or deletes the default branch (<tt>$GIT_DIR/remotes/<name>/HEAD</tt>) for | |
the named remote. Having a default branch for a remote is not required, | |
but allows the name of the remote to be specified in lieu of a specific | |
branch. For example, if the default branch for <tt>origin</tt> is set to | |
<tt>master</tt>, then <tt>origin</tt> may be specified wherever you would normally | |
specify <tt>origin/master</tt>. | |
</p> | |
<div class="para"><p>With <tt>-d</tt>, <tt>$GIT_DIR/remotes/<name>/HEAD</tt> is deleted.</p></div> | |
<div class="para"><p>With <tt>-a</tt>, the remote is queried to determine its <tt>HEAD</tt>, then | |
<tt>$GIT_DIR/remotes/<name>/HEAD</tt> is set to the same branch. e.g., if the remote | |
<tt>HEAD</tt> is pointed at <tt>next</tt>, "<tt>git remote set-head origin -a</tt>" will set | |
<tt>$GIT_DIR/refs/remotes/origin/HEAD</tt> to <tt>refs/remotes/origin/next</tt>. This will | |
only work if <tt>refs/remotes/origin/next</tt> already exists; if not it must be | |
fetched first.</p></div> | |
<div class="para"><p>Use <tt><branch></tt> to set <tt>$GIT_DIR/remotes/<name>/HEAD</tt> explicitly. e.g., "git | |
remote set-head origin master" will set <tt>$GIT_DIR/refs/remotes/origin/HEAD</tt> to | |
<tt>refs/remotes/origin/master</tt>. This will only work if | |
<tt>refs/remotes/origin/master</tt> already exists; if not it must be fetched first.</p></div> | |
</dd> | |
<dt> | |
<em>show</em> | |
</dt> | |
<dd> | |
<p> | |
Gives some information about the remote <name>. | |
</p> | |
<div class="para"><p>With <tt>-n</tt> option, the remote heads are not queried first with | |
<tt>git ls-remote <name></tt>; cached information is used instead.</p></div> | |
</dd> | |
<dt> | |
<em>prune</em> | |
</dt> | |
<dd> | |
<p> | |
Deletes all stale tracking branches under <name>. | |
These stale branches have already been removed from the remote repository | |
referenced by <name>, but are still locally available in | |
"remotes/<name>". | |
</p> | |
<div class="para"><p>With <tt>--dry-run</tt> option, report what branches will be pruned, but do no | |
actually prune them.</p></div> | |
</dd> | |
<dt> | |
<em>update</em> | |
</dt> | |
<dd> | |
<p> | |
Fetch updates for a named set of remotes in the repository as defined by | |
remotes.<group>. If a named group is not specified on the command line, | |
the configuration parameter remotes.default will get used; if | |
remotes.default is not defined, all remotes which do not have the | |
configuration parameter remote.<name>.skipDefaultUpdate set to true will | |
be updated. (See <a href="git-config.html">git-config(1)</a>). | |
</p> | |
</dd> | |
</dl></div> | |
</div> | |
<h2 id="_discussion">DISCUSSION</h2> | |
<div class="sectionbody"> | |
<div class="para"><p>The remote configuration is achieved using the <tt>remote.origin.url</tt> and | |
<tt>remote.origin.fetch</tt> configuration variables. (See | |
<a href="git-config.html">git-config(1)</a>).</p></div> | |
