==================
NAME
----
git-local-fetch - Duplicate another git repository on a local system
SYNOPSIS
--------
[verse]
'git-local-fetch' [-c] [-t] [-a] [-d] [-v] [-w filename] [--recover] [-l] [-s] [-n]
commit-id path
DESCRIPTION
-----------
Duplicates another git repository on a local system.
OPTIONS
-------
-c::
Get the commit objects.
-t::
Get trees associated with the commit objects.
-a::
Get all the objects.
-v::
Report what is downloaded.
-s::
Instead of regular file-to-file copying use symbolic links to the objects
in the remote repository.
-l::
Before attempting symlinks (if -s is specified) or file-to-file copying the
remote objects, try to hardlink the remote objects into the local
repository.
-n::
Never attempt to file-to-file copy remote objects. Only useful with
-s or -l command-line options.
-w <filename>::
Writes the commit-id into the filename under $GIT_DIR/refs/<filename> on
the local end after the transfer is complete.
--stdin::
Instead of a commit id on the commandline (which is not expected in this
case), 'git-local-fetch' expects lines on stdin in the format
<commit-id>['\t'<filename-as-in--w>]
--recover::
Verify that everything reachable from target is fetched. Used after
an earlier fetch is interrupted.
