NAME
       git-upload-pack - Send objects packed back to git-fetch-pack

SYNOPSIS
       git-upload-pack [--strict] [--timeout=<n>] <directory>

DESCRIPTION
       Invoked by git fetch-pack, learns what objects the other side is missing, and sends them after packing.

       This command is usually not invoked directly by the end user. The UI for the protocol is on the git fetch-pack side, and the program pair
       is meant to be used to pull updates from a remote repository. For push operations, see git send-pack.

OPTIONS
       --strict
	   Do not try <directory>/.git/ if <directory> is no Git directory.

       --timeout=<n>
	   Interrupt transfer after <n> seconds of inactivity.

       <directory>
	   The repository to sync from.
