GIT-HTTP-PUSH(1)		  Git Manual		      GIT-HTTP-PUSH(1)

NAME
       git-http-push - Push objects over HTTP/DAV to another repository

SYNOPSIS
       git http-push [--all] [--dry-run] [--force] [--verbose] <URL> <ref> [<ref>...]

DESCRIPTION
       Sends missing objects to	the remote repository, and updates the remote
       branch.

       NOTE: This command is temporarily disabled if your libcurl is older
       than 7.16, as the combination has been reported not to work and
       sometimes corrupts the repository.

OPTIONS
       --all
	   Do not assume that the remote repository is complete	in its current
	   state, and verify all objects in the	entire local ref's history
	   exist in the	remote repository.

       --force
	   Usually, the	command	refuses	to update a remote ref that is not an
	   ancestor of the local ref used to overwrite it. This	flag disables
	   the check. What this	means is that the remote repository can	lose
	   commits; use	it with	care.

       --dry-run
	   Do everything except	actually send the updates.

       --verbose
	   Report the list of objects being walked locally and the list	of
	   objects successfully	sent to	the remote repository.

       -d, -D
	   Remove <ref>	from remote repository.	The specified branch cannot be
	   the remote HEAD. If -d is specified,	the following other conditions
	   must	also be	met:

	      Remote HEAD must	resolve	to an object that exists locally

	      Specified branch	resolves to an object that exists locally

	      Specified branch	is an ancestor of the remote HEAD

       <ref>...
	   The remote refs to update.

SPECIFYING THE REFS
       A <ref> specification can be either a single pattern, or	a pair of such
       patterns	separated by a colon ":" (this means that a ref	name cannot
       have a colon in it). A single pattern <name> is just a shorthand	for
       <name>:<name>.

       Each pattern pair <src>:<dst> consists of the source side (before the
       colon) and the destination side (after the colon). The ref to be	pushed
       is determined by	finding	a match	that matches the source	side, and
       where it	is pushed is determined	by using the destination side.

          It is an error if <src> does	not match exactly one of the local
	   refs.

          If <dst> does not match any remote ref, either

	      it has to start with "refs/"; <dst> is used as the destination
	       literally in this case.

	      <src> ==	<dst> and the ref that matched the <src> must not
	       exist in	the set	of remote refs;	the ref	matched	<src> locally
	       is used as the name of the destination.

       Without --force,	the <src> ref is stored	at the remote only if <dst>
       does not	exist, or <dst>	is a proper subset (i.e. an ancestor) of
       <src>. This check, known	as "fast-forward check", is performed to avoid
       accidentally overwriting	the remote ref and losing other	peoples'
       commits from there.

       With --force, the fast-forward check is disabled	for all	refs.

       Optionally, a <ref> parameter can be prefixed with a plus + sign	to
       disable the fast-forward	check only on that ref.
