symrefs


    In addition to the object pointed by it, show the underlying ref


    pointed by it when showing a symbolic ref.
peel


    Show peeled tags.
ref-prefix <prefix>


    When specified, only references having a prefix matching one of


    the provided prefixes are displayed. Multiple instances may be


    given, in which case references matching any prefix will be


    shown. Note that this is purely for optimization; a server MAY


    show refs not matching the prefix if it chooses, and clients


    should filter the result themselves.

unborn


    The server will send information about HEAD even if it is a symref


    pointing to an unborn branch in the form "unborn HEAD


    symref-target:<target>".

output = *ref


         flush-pkt
obj-id-or-unborn = (obj-id | "unborn")
ref = PKT-LINE(obj-id-or-unborn SP refname *(SP ref-attribute) LF)
ref-attribute = (symref | peeled)
symref = "symref-target:" symref-target
peeled = "peeled:" obj-id

want <oid>


    Indicates to the server an object which the client wants to


    retrieve.  Wants can be anything and are not limited to


    advertised objects.

have <oid>


    Indicates to the server an object which the client has locally.


    This allows the server to make a packfile which only contains


    the objects that the client needs. Multiple 'have' lines can be


    supplied.

done


    Indicates to the server that negotiation should terminate (or


    not even begin if performing a clone) and that the server should


    use the information supplied in the request to construct the


    packfile.

thin-pack


    Request that a thin pack be sent, which is a pack with deltas


    which reference base objects not contained within the pack (but


    are known to exist at the receiving end). This can reduce the


    network traffic significantly, but it requires the receiving end


    to know how to "thicken" these packs by adding the missing bases


    to the pack.

no-progress


    Request that progress information that would normally be sent on


    side-band channel 2, during the packfile transfer, should not be


    sent.  However, the side-band channel 3 is still used for error


    responses.

include-tag


    Request that annotated tags should be sent if the objects they


    point to are being sent.

ofs-delta


    Indicate that the client understands PACKv2 with delta referring


    to its base by position in pack rather than by an oid.  That is,


    they can read OBJ_OFS_DELTA (aka type 6) in a packfile.

shallow <oid>


    A client must notify the server of all commits for which it only


    has shallow copies (meaning that it doesn't have the parents of


    a commit) by supplying a 'shallow <oid>' line for each such


    object so that the server is aware of the limitations of the


    client's history.  This is so that the server is aware that the


    client may not have all objects reachable from such commits.

deepen <depth>


    Requests that the fetch/clone should be shallow having a commit


    depth of <depth> relative to the remote side.

deepen-relative


    Requests that the semantics of the "deepen" command be changed


    to indicate that the depth requested is relative to the client's


    current shallow boundary, instead of relative to the requested


    commits.

deepen-since <timestamp>


    Requests that the shallow clone/fetch should be cut at a


    specific time, instead of depth.  Internally it's equivalent to


    doing "git rev-list --max-age=<timestamp>". Cannot be used with


    "deepen".

deepen-not <rev>


    Requests that the shallow clone/fetch should be cut at a


    specific revision specified by '<rev>', instead of a depth.


    Internally it's equivalent of doing "git rev-list --not <rev>".


    Cannot be used with "deepen", but can be used with


    "deepen-since".

filter <filter-spec>


    Request that various objects from the packfile be omitted


    using one of several filtering techniques. These are intended


    for use with partial clone and partial fetch operations. See


    `rev-list` for possible "filter-spec" values. When communicating


    with other processes, senders SHOULD translate scaled integers


    (e.g. "1k") into a fully-expanded form (e.g. "1024") to aid


    interoperability with older receivers that may not understand


    newly-invented scaling suffixes. However, receivers SHOULD


    accept the following suffixes: 'k', 'm', and 'g' for 1024,


    1048576, and 1073741824, respectively.

want-ref <ref>


    Indicates to the server that the client wants to retrieve a


    particular ref, where <ref> is the full name of a ref on the


    server.

sideband-all


    Instruct the server to send the whole response multiplexed, not just


    the packfile section. All non-flush and non-delim PKT-LINE in the


    response (not only in the packfile section) will then start with a byte


    indicating its sideband (1, 2, or 3), and the server may send "0005\2"


    (a PKT-LINE of sideband 2 with no payload) as a keepalive packet.

packfile-uris <comma-separated list of protocols>


    Indicates to the server that the client is willing to receive


    URIs of any of the given protocols in place of objects in the


    sent packfile. Before performing the connectivity check, the


    client should download from all given URIs. Currently, the


    protocols supported are "http" and "https".

wait-for-done


    Indicates to the server that it should never send "ready", but


    should wait for the client to say "done" before sending the


    packfile.

output = acknowledgements flush-pkt |


         [acknowledgments delim-pkt] [shallow-info delim-pkt]

           *PKT-LINE(%x01-03 *%x00-ff)

acknowledgments section


    * If the client determines that it is finished with negotiations by


      sending a "done" line (thus requiring the server to send a packfile),


      the acknowledgments sections MUST be omitted from the server's


      response.

•Always begins with the section header "acknowledgments"

•The server will respond with "NAK" if none of the object ids sent as have lines were common.

•The server will respond with "ACK obj-id" for all of the object ids sent as have lines which are common.

•A response cannot have both "ACK" lines as well as a "NAK" line.

•The server will respond with a "ready" line indicating that the server has found an acceptable common base and is ready to make and send a packfile (which will be found in the packfile section of the same response)

•If the server has found a suitable cut point and has decided to send a "ready" line, then the server can decide to (as an optimization) omit any "ACK" lines it would have sent during its response. This is because the server will have already determined the objects it plans to send to the client and no further negotiation is needed.

•Always begins with the section header "shallow-info"

•If a positive depth is requested, the server will compute the set of commits which are no deeper than the desired depth.

•The server sends a "shallow obj-id" line for each commit whose parents will not be sent in the following packfile.

•The server sends an "unshallow obj-id" line for each commit which the client has indicated is shallow, but is no longer shallow as a result of the fetch (due to its parents being sent in the following packfile).

•The server MUST NOT send any "unshallow" lines for anything which the client has not indicated was shallow as a part of its request.

•Always begins with the section header "wanted-refs".

•The server will send a ref listing ("<oid> <refname>") for each reference requested using want-ref lines.

•The server MUST NOT send any refs which were not requested using want-ref lines.

•Always begins with the section header "packfile-uris".

•For each URI the server sends, it sends a hash of the pack’s contents (as output by git index-pack) followed by the URI.

•The hashes are 40 hex characters long. When Git upgrades to a new hash algorithm, this might need to be updated. (It should match whatever index-pack outputs after "pack\t" or "keep\t".

•Always begins with the section header "packfile"

•The transmission of the packfile begins immediately after the section header

•The data transfer of the packfile is always multiplexed, using the same semantics of the side-band-64k capability from protocol version 1. This means that each packet, during the packfile data stream, is made up of a leading 4-byte pkt-line length (typical of the pkt-line format), followed by a 1-byte stream code, followed by the actual data.

size
Requests size information to be returned for each listed object id.

oid <oid>
Indicates to the server an object which the client wants to obtain
information for.
