| NAME |
| ---- |
| git-ls-remote - List references in a remote repository |
| |
| |
| SYNOPSIS |
| -------- |
| [verse] |
| 'git ls-remote' [--heads] [--tags] [-u <exec> | --upload-pack <exec>] |
| [--exit-code] <repository> [<refs>...] |
| |
| DESCRIPTION |
| ----------- |
| Displays references available in a remote repository along with the associated |
| commit IDs. |
| |
| |
| OPTIONS |
| ------- |
| -h:: |
| --heads:: |
| -t:: |
| --tags:: |
| Limit to only refs/heads and refs/tags, respectively. |
| These options are _not_ mutually exclusive; when given |
| both, references stored in refs/heads and refs/tags are |
| displayed. |
| |
| -u <exec>:: |
| --upload-pack=<exec>:: |
| Specify the full path of 'git-upload-pack' on the remote |
| host. This allows listing references from repositories accessed via |
| SSH and where the SSH daemon does not use the PATH configured by the |
| user. |
| |
| --exit-code:: |
| Exit with status "2" when no matching refs are found in the remote |
| repository. Usually the command exits with status "0" to indicate |
| it successfully talked with the remote repository, whether it |
| found any matching refs. |
| |
| <repository>:: |
| Location of the repository. The shorthand defined in |
| $GIT_DIR/branches/ can be used. Use "." (dot) to list references in |
| the local repository. |
| |
| <refs>...:: |
| When unspecified, all references, after filtering done |
| with --heads and --tags, are shown. When <refs>... are |
| specified, only references matching the given patterns |
| are displayed. |
