[PATCH] Add git-bundle - pack objects and references for disconnected transfer

[Date Prev][Date Next][Thread Prev][Thread Next][Date Index][Thread Index]

 



Some workflows require coordinated development between repositories on
machines that can never be connected. This utility creates a bundle
containing a pack of objects and associated references (heads or tags)
that can be independently transferred to another machine, effectively
supporting git-push like operations between disconnected systems.

+# Create a bundle to carry from one git repo to another

+# git-bundle <git-rev-list args>
+# git-bundle --bare <git-rev-list args>

+# The bundle includes all refs given (--all selects every ref in the repo).

+# Objects to be packed are limited by specifying one or more of

+#                    (can have more than one ^commit-ish)
+#   --since=xxx    - Assume target repo has all relevant commits
+#                    earlier than xxx
