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 | ----------- | |
14 | This helper uses specified file descriptors to connect to remote git server. | |
15 | This is not meant for end users but for programs and scripts calling git | |
16 | fetch, push or archive. | |
17 | ||
18 | If only <infd> is given, it is assumed to be bidirectional socket connected | |
19 | to remote git server (git-upload-pack, git-receive-pack or | |
20 | git-upload-achive). If both <infd> and <outfd> are given, they are assumed | |
21 | to be pipes connected to remote git server (<infd> being the inbound pipe | |
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 | ||
27 | <anything> can be any string. It is ignored. It is meant for provoding | |
28 | information to user in the URL in case that URL is displayed in some | |
29 | context. | |
