NAME
git-remote - manage set of tracked repositories
SYNOPSIS
git remote [-v | --verbose]
git remote add [-t <branch>] [-m <master>] [-f] [--tags|--no-tags] [--mirror=<fetch|push>] <name> <url>
git remote rename <old> <new>
git remote rm <name>
git remote set-head <name> (-a | -d | <branch>)
git remote set-branches <name> [--add] <branch>...
git remote set-url [--push] <name> <newurl> [<oldurl>]
git remote set-url --add [--push] <name> <newurl>
git remote set-url --delete [--push] <name> <url>
git remote [-v | --verbose] show [-n] <name>
git remote prune [-n | --dry-run] <name>
git remote [-v | --verbose] update [-p | --prune] [(<group> | <remote>)...]
DESCRIPTION
Manage the set of repositories ("remotes") whose branches you track.
OPTIONS
-v, --verbose
Be a little more verbose and show remote url after name. NOTE: This must be placed between remote and subcommand.
COMMANDS
With no arguments, shows a list of existing remotes. Several subcommands are available to perform operations on the remotes.
add
Adds a remote named <name> for the repository at <url>. The command git fetch <name> can then be used to create and update remote-tracking
branches <name>/<branch>.
With -f option, git fetch <name> is run immediately after the remote information is set up.
With --tags option, git fetch <name> imports every tag from the remote repository.
With --no-tags option, git fetch <name> does not import tags from the remote repository.
With -t <branch> option, instead of the default glob refspec for the remote to track all branches under the refs/remotes/<name>/ namespace, a
refspec to track only <branch> is created. You can give more than one -t <branch> to track multiple branches without grabbing all branches.
With -m <master> option, a symbolic-ref refs/remotes/<name>/HEAD is set up to point at remote’s <master> branch. See also the set-head command.
When a fetch mirror is created with --mirror=fetch, the refs will not be stored in the refs/remotes/ namespace, but rather everything in refs/
on the remote will be directly mirrored into refs/ in the local repository. This option only makes sense in bare repositories, because a fetch
would overwrite any local commits.
When a push mirror is created with --mirror=push, then git push will always behave as if --mirror was passed.
rename
Rename the remote named <old> to <new>. All remote-tracking branches and configuration settings for the remote are updated.
In case <old> and <new> are the same, and <old> is a file under $GIT_DIR/remotes or $GIT_DIR/branches, the remote is converted to the
configuration file format.
rm
Remove the remote named <name>. All remote-tracking branches and configuration settings for the remote are removed.
set-head
Sets or deletes the default branch (i.e. the target of the symbolic-ref refs/remotes/<name>/HEAD) for the named remote. Having a default branch
for a remote is not required, but allows the name of the remote to be specified in lieu of a specific branch. For example, if the default
branch for origin is set to master, then origin may be specified wherever you would normally specify origin/master.
With -d, the symbolic ref refs/remotes/<name>/HEAD is deleted.
With -a, the remote is queried to determine its HEAD, then the symbolic-ref refs/remotes/<name>/HEAD is set to the same branch. e.g., if the
remote HEAD is pointed at next, "git remote set-head origin -a" will set the symbolic-ref refs/remotes/origin/HEAD to refs/remotes/origin/next.
This will only work if refs/remotes/origin/next already exists; if not it must be fetched first.
Use <branch> to set the symbolic-ref refs/remotes/<name>/HEAD explicitly. e.g., "git remote set-head origin master" will set the symbolic-ref
refs/remotes/origin/HEAD to refs/remotes/origin/master. This will only work if refs/remotes/origin/master already exists; if not it must be
fetched first.
set-branches
Changes the list of branches tracked by the named remote. This can be used to track a subset of the available remote branches after the initial
setup for a remote.
The named branches will be interpreted as if specified with the -t option on the git remote add command line.
With --add, instead of replacing the list of currently tracked branches, adds to that list.
set-url
Changes URL remote points to. Sets first URL remote points to matching regex <oldurl> (first URL if no <oldurl> is given) to <newurl>. If
<oldurl> doesn’t match any URL, error occurs and nothing is changed.
With --push, push URLs are manipulated instead of fetch URLs.
With --add, instead of changing some URL, new URL is added.
With --delete, instead of changing some URL, all URLs matching regex <url> are deleted. Trying to delete all non-push URLs is an error.
show
Gives some information about the remote <name>.
With -n option, the remote heads are not queried first with git ls-remote <name>; cached information is used instead.
prune
Deletes all stale remote-tracking branches under <name>. These stale branches have already been removed from the remote repository referenced
by <name>, but are still locally available in "remotes/<name>".
With --dry-run option, report what branches will be pruned, but do not actually prune them.
update
Fetch updates for a named set of remotes in the repository as defined by remotes.<group>. If a named group is not specified on the command
line, the configuration parameter remotes.default will be used; if remotes.default is not defined, all remotes which do not have the
configuration parameter remote.<name>.skipDefaultUpdate set to true will be updated. (See git-config(1)).
With --prune option, prune all the remotes that are updated.
DISCUSSION
The remote configuration is achieved using the remote.origin.url and remote.origin.fetch configuration variables. (See git-config(1)).
EXAMPLES
· Add a new remote, fetch, and check out a branch from it
$ git remote
origin
$ git branch -r
origin/master
$ git remote add linux-nfs git://linux-nfs.org/pub/linux/nfs-2.6.git
$ git remote
linux-nfs
origin
$ git fetch
* refs/remotes/linux-nfs/master: storing branch 'master' ...
commit: bf81b46
$ git branch -r
origin/master
linux-nfs/master
$ git checkout -b nfs linux-nfs/master
...
· Imitate git clone but track only selected branches
$ mkdir project.git
$ cd project.git
$ git init
$ git remote add -f -t master -m master origin git://example.com/git.git/
$ git merge origin
