SYNOPSIS
git ls-remote [--heads] [--tags] [--upload-pack=<exec>] [--exit-code] <repository> [<refs>…]
DESCRIPTION
Displays references available in a remote repository along with the associated commit IDs.
OPTIONS
- -h
- --heads
- -t
- --tags
-
Limit to only refs/heads and refs/tags, respectively. These options are not mutually exclusive; when given both, references stored in refs/heads and refs/tags are displayed.
- --upload-pack=<exec>
-
Specify the full path of git-upload-pack on the remote host. This allows listing references from repositories accessed via SSH and where the SSH daemon does not use the PATH configured by the user.
- --exit-code
-
Exit with status "2" when no matching refs are found in the remote repository. Usually the command exits with status "0" to indicate it successfully talked with the remote repository, whether it found any matching refs.
- --get-url
-
Expand the URL of the given remote repository taking into account any "url.<base>.insteadOf" config setting (See git-config[1]) and exit without talking to the remote.
- <repository>
-
The "remote" repository to query. This parameter can be either a URL or the name of a remote (see the GIT URLS and REMOTES sections of git-fetch[1]).
- <refs>…
-
When unspecified, all references, after filtering done with --heads and --tags, are shown. When <refs>… are specified, only references matching the given patterns are displayed.
