SYNOPSIS
--------
+[verse]
'git remote-<transport>' <repository> [<URL>]
DESCRIPTION
it is either the name of a configured remote or a URL. The second
argument specifies a URL; it is usually of the form
'<transport>://<address>', but any arbitrary string is possible.
+The 'GIT_DIR' environment variable is set up for the remote helper
+and can be used to determine where to store additional data or from
+which directory to invoke auxiliary git commands.
When git encounters a URL of the form '<transport>://<address>', where
'<transport>' is a protocol that it cannot handle natively, it
When using the import command, expect the source ref to have
been written to the destination ref. The earliest applicable
refspec takes precedence. For example
- "refs/heads/*:refs/svn/origin/branches/*" means that, after an
- "import refs/heads/name", the script has written to
+ "refs/heads/{asterisk}:refs/svn/origin/branches/{asterisk}" means
+ that, after an "import refs/heads/name", the script has written to
refs/svn/origin/branches/name. If this capability is used at
all, it must cover all refs reported by the list command; if
- it is not used, it is effectively "*:*"
+ it is not used, it is effectively "{asterisk}:{asterisk}"
