  18 -------
  19 commit-id::
  20         Either the hash or the filename under [URL]/refs/ to
  21         pull.

  24         Get the commit objects.

  32 -w <filename>::
  33         Writes the commit-id into the filename under $GIT_DIR/refs/<filename> on
  34         the local end after the transfer is complete.
  35
  36 --stdin::
  37         Instead of a commit id on the command line (which is not expected in this
  38         case), 'git http-fetch' expects lines on stdin in the format
  39
  40                 <commit-id>['\t'<filename-as-in--w>]
  41
  42 --recover::
  43         Verify that everything reachable from target is fetched.  Used after
  44         an earlier fetch is interrupted.
