NAME

       git-remote-fd - Reflect smart transport stream back to caller

SYNOPSIS

       "fd::<infd>[,<outfd>][/<anything>]" (as URL)

DESCRIPTION

       This helper uses specified file descriptors to connect to a remote Git server. This is not meant for end users but for programs and scripts
       calling git fetch, push or archive.

       If only <infd> is given, it is assumed to be a bidirectional socket connected to remote Git server (git-upload-pack, git-receive-pack or
       git-upload-achive). If both <infd> and <outfd> are given, they are assumed to be pipes connected to a remote Git server (<infd> being the
       inbound pipe and <outfd> being the outbound pipe.

       It is assumed that any handshaking procedures have already been completed (such as sending service request for git://) before this helper
       is started.

       <anything> can be any string. It is ignored. It is meant for providing information to user in the URL in case that URL is displayed in some
       context.

ENVIRONMENT VARIABLES

       GIT_TRANSLOOP_DEBUG
	   If set, prints debugging information about various reads/writes.

EXAMPLES

       git fetch fd::17 master
	   Fetch master, using file descriptor #17 to communicate with git-upload-pack.

       git fetch fd::17/foo master
	   Same as above.

       git push fd::7,8 master (as URL)
	   Push master, using file descriptor #7 to read data from git-receive-pack and file descriptor #8 to write data to same service.

       git push fd::7,8/bar master
	   Same as above.

NAME

       git-ls-remote - List references in a remote repository

SYNOPSIS

       git ls-remote [--heads] [--tags]  [-u <exec> | --upload-pack <exec>]
		     [--exit-code] <repository> [<refs>...]

DESCRIPTION

       Displays references available in a remote repository along with the associated commit IDs.

OPTIONS

       -h, --heads, -t, --tags
	   Limit to only refs/heads and refs/tags, respectively. These options are not mutually exclusive; when given both, references stored in
	   refs/heads and refs/tags are displayed.

       -u <exec>, --upload-pack=<exec>
	   Specify the full path of git-upload-pack on the remote host. This allows listing references from repositories accessed via SSH and
	   where the SSH daemon does not use the PATH configured by the user.

       --exit-code
	   Exit with status "2" when no matching refs are found in the remote repository. Usually the command exits with status "0" to indicate it
	   successfully talked with the remote repository, whether it found any matching refs.

       --get-url
	   Expand the URL of the given remote repository taking into account any "url.<base>.insteadOf" config setting (See git-config(1)) and
	   exit without talking to the remote.

       <repository>
	   The "remote" repository to query. This parameter can be either a URL or the name of a remote (see the GIT URLS and REMOTES sections of
	   git-fetch(1)).

       <refs>...
	   When unspecified, all references, after filtering done with --heads and --tags, are shown. When <refs>... are specified, only
	   references matching the given patterns are displayed.

EXAMPLES

	   $ git ls-remote --tags ./.
