NAME
----
git-http-fetch - Download from a remote Git repository via HTTP
SYNOPSIS
--------
[verse]
'git http-fetch' [-c] [-t] [-a] [-d] [-v] [-w filename] [--recover] [--stdin] <commit> <url>
DESCRIPTION
-----------
Downloads a remote Git repository via HTTP.
http-fetch: make `-a` standard behaviour This is a follow-up to a6c786fce8 (Mark http-fetch without -a as deprecated, 2011-08-23). For more than six years, we have been warning when `-a` is not provided, and the documentation has been saying that `-a` will become the default. It is a bit unclear what "default" means here. There is no such thing as `http-fetch --no-a`. But according to my searches, no-one has been asking on the mailing list how they should silence the warning and prepare for overriding the flipped default. So let's assume that everybody is happy with `-a`. They should be, since not using it may break the repo in such a way that Git itself is unable to fix it. Always behave as if `-a` was given. Since `-a` implies `-c` (get commit objects) and `-t` (get trees), all three options are now unnecessary. Document all of these as historical artefacts that have no effect. Leave no-op code for handling these options in http-fetch.c. The options-handling is currently rather loose. If someone tightens it, we will not want these ignored options to accidentally turn into hard errors. Since `-a` was the only safe and sane usage and we have been pushing people towards it for a long time, refrain from warning when it is used "unnecessarily" now. Similarly, do not add anything scary-looking to the man-page about how it will be removed in the future. We can always do so later. (It is not like we are in desperate need of freeing up one-letter arguments.) Signed-off-by: Martin Ågren <martin.agren@gmail.com> Signed-off-by: Junio C Hamano <gitster@pobox.com>

This command always gets all objects. Historically, there were three options
`-a`, `-c` and `-t` for choosing which objects to download. They are now
silently ignored.
OPTIONS
-------
commit-id::
Either the hash or the filename under [URL]/refs/ to
pull.

-a, -c, -t::
These options are ignored for historical reasons.
-v::
Report what is downloaded.
-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 command line (which is not expected in this
case), 'git http-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.
