GIT-UPLOAD-PACK(1)		  Git Manual		    GIT-UPLOAD-PACK(1)



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

SYNOPSIS
       git-upload-pack [--[no-]strict] [--timeout=<n>] [--stateless-rpc]
			 [--advertise-refs] <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
       --[no-]strict
	   Do not try <directory>/.git/ if <directory> is no Git directory.

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

       --stateless-rpc
	   Perform only a single read-write cycle with stdin and stdout. This
	   fits with the HTTP POST request processing model where a program
	   may read the request, write a response, and must exit.

       --http-backend-info-refs
	   Used by git-http-backend(1) to serve up
	   $GIT_URL/info/refs?service=git-upload-pack requests. See "Smart
	   Clients" in gitprotocol-http(5) and "HTTP Transport" in the
	   gitprotocol-v2(5) documentation. Also understood by git-receive-
	   pack(1).

       <directory>
	   The repository to sync from.

ENVIRONMENT
       GIT_PROTOCOL
	   Internal variable used for handshaking the wire protocol. Server
	   admins may need to configure some transports to allow this variable
	   to be passed. See the discussion in git(1).
