+       Instead of a commit id on the command line (which is not expected in
+       this case), 'git http-fetch' fetches the packfile directly at the given
+       URL and uses index-pack to generate corresponding .idx and .keep files.
+       The hash is used to determine the name of the temporary file and is
+       arbitrary. The output of index-pack is printed to stdout.

 --recover::
        Verify that everything reachable from target is fetched.  Used after
        an earlier fetch is interrupted.
