4 | NAME | |
5 | ---- | |
6 | git-remote-fd - Reflect smart transport stream back to caller | |
7 | ||
8 | SYNOPSIS | |
9 | -------- | |
10 | "fd::<infd>[,<outfd>][/<anything>]" (as URL) | |
11 | ||
12 | DESCRIPTION | |
13 | ----------- | |
2de9b711 | 14 | This helper uses specified file descriptors to connect to a remote Git server. |
3a9ed4bd IL |
15 | This is not meant for end users but for programs and scripts calling git |
16 | fetch, push or archive. | |
17 | ||
469bfc96 | 18 | If only <infd> is given, it is assumed to be a bidirectional socket connected |
2de9b711 | 19 | to remote Git server (git-upload-pack, git-receive-pack or |
2e3a16b2 | 20 | git-upload-archive). If both <infd> and <outfd> are given, they are assumed |
2de9b711 | 21 | to be pipes connected to a remote Git server (<infd> being the inbound pipe |
3a9ed4bd IL |
22 | and <outfd> being the outbound pipe. |
23 | ||
24 | It is assumed that any handshaking procedures have already been completed | |
25 | (such as sending service request for git://) before this helper is started. | |
26 | ||
469bfc96 | 27 | <anything> can be any string. It is ignored. It is meant for providing |
3a9ed4bd IL |
28 | information to user in the URL in case that URL is displayed in some |
29 | context. | |

44 | ||
5d2fc913 | 45 | `git push fd::7,8 master (as URL)`:: |
3a9ed4bd IL |
46 | Push master, using file descriptor #7 to read data from |
47 | git-receive-pack and file descriptor #8 to write data to | |
48 | same service. | |
49 | ||
