6 git-parse-remote - Routines to help parsing remote repository access parameters
15 This script is included in various scripts to supply
16 routines to parse files under $GIT_DIR/remotes/ and
17 $GIT_DIR/branches/ and configuration variables that are related
18 to fetching, pulling and pushing.
20 The primary entry points are:
22 get_remote_refs_for_fetch::
23 Given the list of user-supplied `<repo> <refspec>...`,
24 return the list of refs to fetch after canonicalizing
25 them into `$GIT_DIR` relative paths
26 (e.g. `refs/heads/foo`). When `<refspec>...` is empty
27 the returned list of refs consists of the defaults
28 for the given `<repo>`, if specified in
29 `$GIT_DIR/remotes/`, `$GIT_DIR/branches/`, or `remote.*.fetch`
32 get_remote_refs_for_push::
33 Given the list of user-supplied `<repo> <refspec>...`,
34 return the list of refs to push in a form suitable to be
35 fed to the `git-send-pack` command. When `<refspec>...`
36 is empty the returned list of refs consists of the
37 defaults for the given `<repo>`, if specified in
42 Written by Junio C Hamano.
