git-remote-helpers.txt: rearrange description of capabilities
This also remove some duplication in the descriptions (e.g. refspec was explained twice with similar level of detail). Signed-off-by: Max Horn <max@quendi.de> Acked-by: Sverre Rabbelier <srabbelier@gmail.com> Signed-off-by: Junio C Hamano <gitster@pobox.com>

|
|||
The operations a helper supports are declared to git in the response
|
||||
to the `capabilities` command (see COMMANDS, below).
|
||||
|
||||
'option'::
|
||||
For specifying settings like `verbosity` (how much output to
|
||||
write to stderr) and `depth` (how much history is wanted in the
|
||||
case of a shallow clone) that affect how other commands are
|
||||
carried out.
|
||||
|
||||
'connect'::
|
||||
For fetching and pushing using git's native packfile protocol
|
||||
that requires a bidirectional, full-duplex connection.
|
||||
|
||||
'push'::
|
||||
For listing remote refs and pushing specified objects from the
|
||||
local object store to remote refs.
|
||||
|
||||
'fetch'::
|
||||
For listing remote refs and fetching the associated history to
|
||||
the local object store.
|
||||
|
||||
'export'::
|
||||
For listing remote refs and pushing specified objects from a
|
||||
fast-import stream to remote refs.
|
||||
|
||||
'import'::
|
||||
For listing remote refs and fetching the associated history as
|
||||
a fast-import stream.
|
||||
|
||||
'refspec' <refspec>::
|
||||
This modifies the 'import' capability, allowing the produced
|
||||
fast-import stream to modify refs in a private namespace
|
||||
instead of writing to refs/heads or refs/remotes directly.
|
||||
It is recommended that all importers providing the 'import'
|
||||
capability use this.
|
||||
+
|
||||
A helper advertising the capability
|
||||
`refspec refs/heads/*:refs/svn/origin/branches/*`
|
||||
is saying that, when it is asked to `import refs/heads/topic`, the
|
||||
stream it outputs will update the `refs/svn/origin/branches/topic`
|
||||
ref.
|
||||
+
|
||||
This capability can be advertised multiple times. The first
|
||||
applicable refspec takes precedence. The left-hand of refspecs
|
||||
advertised with this capability must cover all refs reported by
|
||||
the list command. If no 'refspec' capability is advertised,
|
||||
there is an implied `refspec *:*`.
|
||||
|
||||
'bidi-import'::
|
||||
The fast-import commands 'cat-blob' and 'ls' can be used by remote-helpers
|
||||
to retrieve information about blobs and trees that already exist in
|
||||
fast-import's memory. This requires a channel from fast-import to the
|
||||
remote-helper.
|
||||
If it is advertised in addition to "import", git establishes a pipe from
|
||||
fast-import to the remote-helper's stdin.
|
||||
It follows that git and fast-import are both connected to the
|
||||
remote-helper's stdin. Because git can send multiple commands to
|
||||
the remote-helper it is required that helpers that use 'bidi-import'
|
||||
buffer all 'import' commands of a batch before sending data to fast-import.
|
||||
This is to prevent mixing commands and fast-import responses on the
|
||||
helper's stdin.
|
||||
|
||||
'export-marks' <file>::
|
||||
This modifies the 'export' capability, instructing git to dump the
|
||||
internal marks table to <file> when complete. For details,
|
||||
read up on '--export-marks=<file>' in linkgit:git-fast-export[1].
|
||||
|
||||
'import-marks' <file>::
|
||||
This modifies the 'export' capability, instructing git to load the
|
||||
marks specified in <file> before processing any input. For details,
|
||||
read up on '--import-marks=<file>' in linkgit:git-fast-export[1].

||||

|
||||

|
||||
must provide.
