The "git ls-remote" uses its exit status to indicate if it successfully talked with the remote repository. A new option "--exit-code" makes the command exit with status "2" when there is no refs to be listed, even when the command successfully talked with the remote repository. This way, the caller can tell if we failed to contact the remote, or the remote did not have what we wanted to see. Of course, you can inspect the output from the command, which has been and will continue to be a valid way to check the same thing.

NAME

|
|
git-ls-remote - List references in a remote repository
|
|
|
|
|
|
SYNOPSIS
|
|
--------
|
|
[verse]
|
|
'git ls-remote' [--heads] [--tags] [-u <exec> | --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.
|
|
|
|
-u <exec>::
|
|
--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.
|
|
|
|
<repository>::
|
|
Location of the repository. The shorthand defined in
|
|
$GIT_DIR/branches/ can be used. Use "." (dot) to list references in
|
|
the local repository.
|
|
|
|
<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.
|
