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).
