NAME

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

SYNOPSIS

       git ls-remote [--heads] [--tags] [--refs] [--upload-pack=<exec>]
		     [-q | --quiet] [--exit-code] [--get-url]
		     [--symref] [<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.

       --refs
	   Do not show peeled tags or pseudorefs like HEAD in the output.

       -q, --quiet
	   Do not print remote URL to stderr.

       --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.

       --symref
	   In addition to the object pointed by it, show the underlying ref pointed by it when showing a symbolic ref. Currently, upload-pack only
	   shows the symref HEAD, so it will be the only one shown by ls-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.
