1--all:: 2 Fetch all remotes. 3 4-a:: 5--append:: 6 Append ref names and object names of fetched refs to the 7 existing contents of `.git/FETCH_HEAD`. Without this 8 option old data in `.git/FETCH_HEAD` will be overwritten. 9 10--depth=<depth>:: 11 Deepen the history of a 'shallow' repository created by 12 `git clone` with `--depth=<depth>` option (see linkgit:git-clone[1]) 13 by the specified number of commits. 14 15ifndef::git-pull[] 16--dry-run:: 17 Show what would be done, without making any changes. 18endif::git-pull[] 19 20-f:: 21--force:: 22 When 'git fetch' is used with `<rbranch>:<lbranch>` 23 refspec, it refuses to update the local branch 24 `<lbranch>` unless the remote branch `<rbranch>` it 25 fetches is a descendant of `<lbranch>`. This option 26 overrides that check. 27 28-k:: 29--keep:: 30 Keep downloaded pack. 31 32ifndef::git-pull[] 33--multiple:: 34 Allow several <repository> and <group> arguments to be 35 specified. No <refspec>s may be specified. 36 37-p:: 38--prune:: 39 After fetching, remove any remote-tracking branches which 40 no longer exist on the remote. 41endif::git-pull[] 42 43ifdef::git-pull[] 44--no-tags:: 45endif::git-pull[] 46ifndef::git-pull[] 47-n:: 48--no-tags:: 49endif::git-pull[] 50 By default, tags that point at objects that are downloaded 51 from the remote repository are fetched and stored locally. 52 This option disables this automatic tag following. The default 53 behavior for a remote may be specified with the remote.<name>.tagopt 54 setting. See linkgit:git-config[1]. 55 56ifndef::git-pull[] 57-t:: 58--tags:: 59 Most of the tags are fetched automatically as branch 60 heads are downloaded, but tags that do not point at 61 objects reachable from the branch heads that are being 62 tracked will not be fetched by this mechanism. This 63 flag lets all tags and their associated objects be 64 downloaded. The default behavior for a remote may be 65 specified with the remote.<name>.tagopt setting. See 66 linkgit:git-config[1]. 67 68--recurse-submodules[=yes|on-demand|no]:: 69 This option controls if and under what conditions new commits of 70 populated submodules should be fetched too. It can be used as a 71 boolean option to completely disable recursion when set to 'no' or to 72 unconditionally recurse into all populated submodules when set to 73 'yes', which is the default when this option is used without any 74 value. Use 'on-demand' to only recurse into a populated submodule 75 when the superproject retrieves a commit that updates the submodule's 76 reference. 77 78--no-recurse-submodules:: 79 Disable recursive fetching of submodules (this has the same effect as 80 using the '--recurse-submodules=no' option). 81 82--submodule-prefix=<path>:: 83 Prepend <path> to paths printed in informative messages 84 such as "Fetching submodule foo". This option is used 85 internally when recursing over submodules. 86 87--recurse-submodules-default=[yes|on-demand]:: 88 This option is used internally to temporarily provide a 89 non-negative default value for the --recurse-submodules 90 option. All other methods of configuring fetch's submodule 91 recursion (such as settings in linkgit:gitmodules[5] and 92 linkgit:git-config[1]) override this option, as does 93 specifying --[no-]recurse-submodules directly. 94endif::git-pull[] 95 96-u:: 97--update-head-ok:: 98 By default 'git fetch' refuses to update the head which 99 corresponds to the current branch. This flag disables the 100 check. This is purely for the internal use for 'git pull' 101 to communicate with 'git fetch', and unless you are 102 implementing your own Porcelain you are not supposed to 103 use it. 104 105--upload-pack <upload-pack>:: 106 When given, and the repository to fetch from is handled 107 by 'git fetch-pack', '--exec=<upload-pack>' is passed to 108 the command to specify non-default path for the command 109 run on the other end. 110 111ifndef::git-pull[] 112-q:: 113--quiet:: 114 Pass --quiet to git-fetch-pack and silence any other internally 115 used git commands. Progress is not reported to the standard error 116 stream. 117 118-v:: 119--verbose:: 120 Be verbose. 121endif::git-pull[] 122 123--progress:: 124 Progress status is reported on the standard error stream 125 by default when it is attached to a terminal, unless -q 126 is specified. This flag forces progress status even if the 127 standard error stream is not directed to a terminal.
