Namn

git – den enkla innehållsspåraren


Ingress

git(1) beskriver huvudprogrammet Git, dess globala flaggor, indelningen mellan högnivåkommandon och lågnivåkommandon, viktiga miljövariabler, begrepp och hänvisningar till övrig dokumentation. Denna fil är konverterad till MediaWiki-format och tekniska kommandon, miljövariabler och exempel är bevarade oförändrade där det behövs.

Beskrivning

Git är ett snabbt, skalbart och distribuerat versionshanteringssystem med en ovanligt rikt uppsättning kommandon som ger både högnivåfunktioner och full åtkomst till interna delar.

See gittutorial(7) 

för att komma igång, then see

giteveryday(7) 

för en användbar minsta uppsättning kommandon. The

Git User’s Manual [1] har en mer fördjupad introduktion.

När du behärskar de grundläggande begreppen kan du återvända till denna sida för att se vilka kommandon Git erbjuder. Du kan läsa mer om enskilda Git-kommandon med "git help kommando". gitcli(7) 

manualsidan ger en översikt över kommandoradens syntax.

En formaterad och hyperlänkad kopia av den senaste Git-dokumentationen finns på https://git.github.io/htmldocs/git.html or

Flaggor

-v, --version 

   Skriver ut versionsnumret för Git-sviten som

git 

programmet tillhör.

   This option is internally converted to

git version ... and 

   accepts the same options as the

git-version(1) 

command. If

--help is also given, it takes precedence over --version .

-h, --help 

   Prints the synopsis and a list of the most commonly used
   commands. If the option

--all or -a is given then all 

   available commands are printed. If a Git command is named this
   option will bring up the manual page for that command.

   Other options are available to control how the manual page is
   displayed. See

git-help(1) 

for more information, because

git

--help ... is converted internally into git help ....

-C <path> 

   Kör som om git hade startats i

<path> 

instead of the current
   working directory. When multiple

-C options are given, each 

   subsequent non-absolute

-C <path> 

is interpreted relative to
   the preceding

-C <path> . If <path> 

is present but empty, e.g.

-C "", then the current working directory is left unchanged. 

   This option affects options that expect path name like

--git-dir and --work-tree in that their interpretations of the 

   path names would be made relative to the working directory
   caused by the

-C option. For example the following invocations 

   are equivalent:

       git --git-dir=a.git --work-tree=b -C c status
       git --git-dir=c/a.git --work-tree=c/b status

-c <name>=<value> 

   Skicka en konfigurationsparameter till kommandot. The value given
   will override values from configuration files. The <name> is
   expected in the same format as listed by

git config 

(subkeys
   separated by dots).

   Note that omitting the

= in git -c foo.bar ... is allowed and 

   sets

foo.bar to the boolean true value (just like [ foo ] bar 

   would in a config file). Including the equals but with an
   empty value (like

git -c foo.bar= ...) sets foo.bar to the 

   empty string which

git config --type=bool will convert to

false .

--config-env=<name>=<envvar> 

   Like

-c <name> = <value> , give configuration variable <name> 

a
   value, where <envvar> is the name of an environment variable
   from which to retrieve the value. Unlike

-c there is no 

   shortcut for directly setting the value to an empty string,
   instead the environment variable itself must be set to the
   empty string. It is an error if the

<envvar> 

does not exist in
   the environment.

<envvar> 

may not contain an equals sign to
   avoid ambiguity with

<name> 

containing one.

   This is useful for cases where you want to pass transitory
   configuration options to git, but are doing so on operating
   systems where other processes might be able to read your
   command line (e.g.

/proc/self/cmdline ), but not your 

   environment (e.g.

/proc/self/environ ). That behavior is the 

   default on Linux, but may not be on your system.

   Note that this might add security for variables such as

http.extraHeader where the sensitive information is part of 

   the value, but not e.g.

url. <base> .insteadOf where the 

   sensitive information can be part of the key.

--exec-path[=<path>] 

   Sökväg till platsen där Gits kärnprogram är installerade. This
   can also be controlled by setting the GIT_EXEC_PATH
   environment variable. If no path is given,

git 

will print the
   current setting and then exit.

--html-path 

   Skriv ut sökvägen, without trailing slash, where Git’s HTML
   documentation is installed och avsluta.

--man-path 

   Print the manpath (see

man ( 1 )) for the man pages for this 

   version of Git och avsluta.

--info-path 

   Skriv ut sökvägen where the Info files documenting this version
   of Git are installed och avsluta.

-p, --paginate 

   Skicka all utdata till

less 

(or if set, $PAGER) if standard
   output is a terminal. This overrides the

pager. <cmd> 

   configuration options (see the "Configuration Mechanism"
   section below).

-P, --no-pager 

   Skicka inte Git-utdata till en sidvisare.

--git-dir=<path> 

   Ange sökvägen till förrådet (".git" directory). This can
   also be controlled by setting the

GIT_DIR environment 

   variable. It can be an absolute path or relative path to
   current working directory.

   Specifying the location of the ".git" directory using this
   option (or

GIT_DIR environment variable) turns off the 

   repository discovery that tries to find a directory with
   ".git" subdirectory (which is how the repository and the
   top-level of the working tree are discovered), and tells Git
   that you are at the top level of the working tree. If you are
   not at the top-level directory of the working tree, you should
   tell Git where the top-level of the working tree is, with the

--work-tree= <path> 

option (or

GIT_WORK_TREE environment 

   variable)

   If you just want to run git as if it was started in

<path> 

   then use

git -C <path> .

--work-tree=<path> 

   Ange sökvägen till arbetsträdet. It can be an absolute path
   or a path relative to the current working directory. This can
   also be controlled by setting the GIT_WORK_TREE environment
   variable and the core.worktree configuration variable (see
   core.worktree in

git-config(1) 

for a more detailed
   discussion).

--namespace=<path> 

   Sätt the Git namespace. See

gitnamespaces(7) 

for more details.
   Equivalent to setting the

GIT_NAMESPACE environment variable.

--bare 

   Behandla förrådet som ett bart förråd. If GIT_DIR
   environment is not set, it is set to the current working
   directory.

--no-replace-objects 

   Använd inte ersättningsreferenser för att ersätta Git-objekt. This is
   equivalent to exporting the

GIT_NO_REPLACE_OBJECTS environment 

   variable with any value. See

git-replace(1) 

for more
   information.

--no-lazy-fetch 

   Do not fetch missing objects from the promisor remote on
   demand. Useful together with

git cat-file -e <object> 

to see
   if the object is locally available. This is equivalent to
   setting the

GIT_NO_LAZY_FETCH environment variable to 1 .

--no-optional-locks 

   Do not perform optional operations that require locks. This is
   equivalent to setting the

GIT_OPTIONAL_LOCKS to 0 .

--no-advice 

   Stäng av utskrift av alla råd och tips.

--literal-pathspecs 

   Behandla pathspec-värden bokstavligt (i.e. no globbing, no pathspec
   magic). This is equivalent to setting the

GIT_LITERAL_PATHSPECS environment variable to 1 .

--glob-pathspecs 

   Add "glob" magic to all pathspec. This is equivalent to
   setting the

GIT_GLOB_PATHSPECS environment variable to 1 . 

   Disabling globbing on individual pathspecs can be done using
   pathspec magic ":(literal)"

--noglob-pathspecs 

   Add "literal" magic to all pathspec. This is equivalent to
   setting the

GIT_NOGLOB_PATHSPECS environment variable to 1 . 

   Enabling globbing on individual pathspecs can be done using
   pathspec magic ":(glob)"

--icase-pathspecs 

   Add "icase" magic to all pathspec. This is equivalent to
   setting the

GIT_ICASE_PATHSPECS environment variable to 1 .

--list-cmds=<group>[,<group>...] 

   Lista kommandon efter grupp. This is an internal/experimental
   option and may change or be removed in the future. Supported
   groups are: builtins, parseopt (builtin commands that use
   parse-options), deprecated (deprecated builtins), main (all
   commands in libexec directory), others (all other commands in

$PATH that have git- prefix), list-<category> (see categories 

   in command-list.txt), nohelpers (exclude helper commands),
   alias and config (retrieve command list from config variable
   completion.commands)

--attr-source=<tree-ish> 

   Läs gitattributes från <tree-ish> instead of the worktree.
   See

gitattributes(5) . This is equivalent to setting the

GIT_ATTR_SOURCE environment variable.

is about restoring files in the working tree
   from either the index or another commit. This command does not
   update your branch. The command can also be used to restore
   files in the index from another commit.

• git-reset(1)

   changes the commit history.

git reset can also be used to restore the index, overlapping 

   with

git restore .


Lågnivåkommandon (plumbing)

Även om Git innehåller ett eget porcelain-lager räcker lågnivåkommandona för att stödja utveckling av alternativa porcelain-gränssnitt. Developers of such porcelains might start by reading about git-update-index(1) 

and

git-read-tree(1) .

The interface (input, output, set of options and the semantics) to these low-level commands are meant to be a lot more stable than Porcelain level commands, because these commands are primarily for scripted use. The interface to Porcelain commands on the other hand are subject to change in order to improve the end user experience.

The following description divides the low-level commands into commands that manipulate objects (in the repository, index, and working tree), commands that interrogate and compare objects, and commands that move objects and references between repositories. Manipulationskommandon git-apply(1)

Konfigurationsmekanism

Git använder ett enkelt textformat för att lagra anpassningar per förråd och per användare. Such a configuration file may look like this: 

   #
   # A '#' or ';' character indicates a comment.
   #

   ; core variables
   [core]
           ; Don't trust file modes
           filemode = false

   ; user identity
   [user]
           name = "Junio C Hamano"
           email = "gitster@pobox.com"

Olika kommandon läser konfigurationsfilen och anpassar sitt beteende därefter. See git-config(1) 

for a list and more

details about the configuration mechanism.


Identifierarterminologi

<object> 

   Anger objektnamnet för valfri objekttyp.

<blob> 

   Anger namnet på ett blob-objekt.

<tree> 

   Anger namnet på ett trädobjekt.

<commit> 

   Anger namnet på ett commit-objekt.

<tree-ish> 

   Indicates a tree, commit or tag object name. A command that
   takes a <tree-ish> argument ultimately wants to operate on a
   <tree> object but automatically dereferences <commit> and
   <tag> objects that point at a <tree>.

<commit-ish> 

   Indicates a commit or tag object name. A command that takes a
   <commit-ish> argument ultimately wants to operate on a
   <commit> object but automatically dereferences <tag> objects
   that point at a <commit>.

<type> 

   Indicates that an object type is required. Currently one of:

blob , tree , commit , or tag .

<file> 

   Indicates a filename - almost always relative to the root of
   the tree structure

GIT_INDEX_FILE describes.


Symboliska identifierare

Any Git command accepting any <object> can also use the following symbolic notation:

HEAD 

   indicates the head of the current branch.

<tag> 

   a valid tag

name 

(i.e. a

refs/tags/ <tag> 

reference).

<head> 

   a valid head

name 

(i.e. a

refs/heads/ <head> 

reference).

For a more complete list of ways to spell object names, see "SPECIFYING REVISIONS" section in gitrevisions(7) .

Miljövariabler

Olika Git-kommandon tar hänsyn till miljövariabler och ändrar sitt beteende. The environment variables marked as "Boolean" take their values the same way as Boolean valued configuration variables, i.e., "true", "yes", "on" and positive numbers are taken as "yes", while "false", "no", "off", and "0" are taken as "no".

Här är variablerna: System HOME 

   Anger sökvägen till användarens hemkatalog. On Windows,
   if unset, Git will set a process environment variable equal
   to:

$HOMEDRIVE$HOMEPATH if both $HOMEDRIVE and $HOMEPATH 

   exist; otherwise

$USERPROFILE if $USERPROFILE exists.

PATH 

   When a user runs

git <command> 

that is not part of the core
   Git programs (installed in GIT_EXEC_PATH),

git-<command> 

that
   is runnable by the user in a directory on

$PATH is invoked. 

   Argument passed after the command name are passed as-is to the
   program. To execute

git <foo> , git finds command <foo> 

(either
   a core Git program found in

GIT_EXEC_PATH , or a custom one in 

   a directory on

PATH ), before trying foo as an alias. Git-förrådet These environment variables apply to all 

core Git commands. Nb: it

is worth noting that they may be used/overridden by SCMS sitting above Git so take care if using a foreign front-end.

GIT_INDEX_FILE 

   Denna miljövariabel anger en alternativ indexfil.
   Om den inte anges, standardvärdet of

$GIT_DIR/index används.

GIT_INDEX_VERSION 

   This environment variable specifies what index version is used
   when writing the index file out. It won’t affect existing
   index files. By default index file version 2 or 3 används. See

git-update-index(1) 

for more information.

GIT_OBJECT_DIRECTORY 

   If the object storage directory is specified via this
   environment variable then the sha1 directories are created
   underneath - otherwise standardvärdet

$GIT_DIR/objects directory 

   används.

GIT_ALTERNATE_OBJECT_DIRECTORIES 

   Due to the immutable nature of Git objects, old objects can be
   archived into shared, read-only directories. This variable
   specifies a ":" separated (on Windows ";" separated) list of
   Git object directories which can be used to search for Git
   objects. New objects will not be written to these directories.

   Entries that begin with " (double-quote) will be interpreted
   as C-style quoted paths, removing leading and trailing
   double-quotes and respecting backslash escapes. E.g., the
   value "path-with-\"-and-:-in-it":vanilla-path has two paths:

path-with- "-and-:-in-it and vanilla-path .

GIT_DIR 

   If the

GIT_DIR environment variable is set then it specifies a 

   path to use instead of standardvärdet

.git for the base of the 

   repository. The

--git-dir command-line option also sets this 

   value.

GIT_WORK_TREE 

   Sätt the path to the root of the working tree. This can also be
   controlled by the

--work-tree command-line option and the 

   core.worktree configuration variable.

GIT_NAMESPACE 

   Sätt the Git namespace; see

gitnamespaces(7) 

for details. The

--namespace command-line option also sets this value.

GIT_CEILING_DIRECTORIES 

   This should be a colon-separated list of absolute paths. If
   set, it is a list of directories that Git should not chdir up
   into while looking for a repository directory (useful for
   excluding slow-loading network directories). It will not
   exclude the current working directory or a GIT_DIR set on the
   command line or in the environment. Normally, Git has to read
   the entries in this list and resolve any symlink that might be
   present in order to compare them with the current directory.
   However, if even this access is slow, you can add an empty
   entry to the list to tell Git that the subsequent entries are
   not symlinks and needn’t be resolved; e.g.,

GIT_CEILING_DIRECTORIES=/maybe/symlink::/very/slow/non/symlink .

GIT_DISCOVERY_ACROSS_FILESYSTEM 

   When run in a directory that does not have ".git" repository
   directory, Git tries to find such a directory in the parent
   directories to find the top of the working tree, but by
   default it does not cross filesystem boundaries. This Boolean
   environment variable can be set to true to tell Git not to
   stop at filesystem boundaries. Like

GIT_CEILING_DIRECTORIES , 

   this will not affect an explicit repository directory set via

GIT_DIR or on the command line.

GIT_COMMON_DIR 

   If this variable is set to a path, non-worktree files that are
   normally in $GIT_DIR will be taken from this path instead.
   Worktree-specific files such as HEAD or index are taken from
   $GIT_DIR. See

gitrepository-layout(5) 

and

git-worktree(1) 

for
   details. This variable has lower precedence than other path
   variables such as GIT_INDEX_FILE, GIT_OBJECT_DIRECTORY...

GIT_DEFAULT_HASH 

   If this variable is set, standardvärdet hash algorithm for new
   repositories will be set to this value. This value is ignored
   when cloning and the setting of the remote repository is
   always used. The default is "sha1". See

--object-format in

git-init(1) .

GIT_DEFAULT_REF_FORMAT 

   If this variable is set, standardvärdet reference backend format
   for new repositories will be set to this value. The default is
   "files". See

--ref-format in git-init(1) .

GIT_REFERENCE_BACKEND 

   Specify which reference backend to be used along with its URI.
   See

extensions.refStorage option in git-config(1) 

for more
   details. Overrides the config variable when used.

Git-commits GIT_AUTHOR_NAME 

   Det läsbara namnet som används i författaridentiteten when
   creating commit or tag objects, or when writing reflogs.
   Overrides the

user.name and author.name configuration 

   settings.

GIT_AUTHOR_EMAIL 

   E-postadressen som används i författaridentiteten when creating
   commit or tag objects, or when writing reflogs. Overrides the

user.email and author.email configuration settings.

GIT_AUTHOR_DATE 

   Datumet som används för författaridentiteten when creating commit or
   tag objects, or when writing reflogs. See

git-commit(1) 

for
   valid formats.

GIT_COMMITTER_NAME 

   Det läsbara namnet som används i committer-identiteten when
   creating commit or tag objects, or when writing reflogs.
   Overrides the

user.name and committer.name configuration 

   settings.

GIT_COMMITTER_EMAIL 

   E-postadressen som används i författaridentiteten when creating
   commit or tag objects, or when writing reflogs. Overrides the

user.email and committer.email configuration settings.

GIT_COMMITTER_DATE 

   Datumet som används för committer-identiteten when creating commit
   or tag objects, or when writing reflogs. See

git-commit(1) 

for
   valid formats.

EMAIL 

   The email address used in the author and committer identities
   if no other relevant environment variable or configuration
   setting has been set.

Git-diffar GIT_DIFF_OPTS 

   Only valid setting is "--unified=??" or "-u??" to set the
   number of context lines shown when a unified diff is created.
   This takes precedence over any "-U" or "--unified" option
   value passed on the Git diff command line.

GIT_EXTERNAL_DIFF 

   When the environment variable

GIT_EXTERNAL_DIFF is set, the 

   program named by it is called to generate diffs, and Git does
   not use its builtin diff machinery. For a path that is added,
   removed, or modified,

GIT_EXTERNAL_DIFF is called with 7 

   parameters:

       path old-file old-hex old-mode new-file new-hex new-mode

   where:

<old|new>-file 

   are files GIT_EXTERNAL_DIFF can use to read the contents of
   <old|new>,

<old|new>-hex 

   are the 40-hexdigit SHA-1 hashes,

<old|new>-mode 

   are the octal representation of the file modes.

   The file parameters can point at the user’s working file (e.g.

new-file in "git-diff-files"), /dev/null (e.g. old-file when 

   a new file is added), or a temporary file (e.g.

old-file in 

   the index).

GIT_EXTERNAL_DIFF should not worry about 

   unlinking the temporary file — it is removed when

GIT_EXTERNAL_DIFF exits. 

   For a path that is unmerged,

GIT_EXTERNAL_DIFF is called with 

   1 parameter, <path>.

   For each path

GIT_EXTERNAL_DIFF is called, two environment 

   variables,

GIT_DIFF_PATH_COUNTER and GIT_DIFF_PATH_TOTAL are 

   set.

GIT_EXTERNAL_DIFF_TRUST_EXIT_CODE 

   If this Boolean environment variable is set to true then the

GIT_EXTERNAL_DIFF command is expected to return exit code 0 if 

   it considers the input files to be equal or 1 if it considers
   them to be different, like

diff ( 1 ). If it is set to false, 

   which is standardvärdet, then the command is expected to return
   exit code 0 regardless of equality. Any other exit code causes
   Git to report a fatal error.

GIT_DIFF_PATH_COUNTER 

   A 1-based counter incremented by one for every path.

GIT_DIFF_PATH_TOTAL 

   The total number of paths.

Övrigt GIT_MERGE_VERBOSITY 

   Ett tal som styr the amount of output shown by the
   recursive merge strategy. Overrides merge.verbosity. See

git-merge(1)

GIT_PAGER 

   Denna miljövariabel åsidosätter

$PAGER . If it is set to an 

   empty string or to the value "cat", Git will not launch a
   pager. Se also the

core.pager option in git-config(1) .

GIT_PROGRESS_DELAY 

   Ett tal som styr how many seconds to delay before showing
   optional progress indicators. Defaults to 1.

GIT_EDITOR 

   Denna miljövariabel åsidosätter

$EDITOR and $VISUAL . It is 

   used by several Git commands when, on interactive mode, an
   editor is to be launched. Se also

git-var(1) 

and the

core.editor option in git-config(1) .

GIT_SEQUENCE_EDITOR 

   Denna miljövariabel åsidosätter the configured Git editor
   when editing the todo list of an interactive rebase. Se also

git-rebase(1) 

and the

sequence.editor option in git-config(1) .

GIT_SSH , GIT_SSH_COMMAND 

   If either of these environment variables is set then

git fetch 

   and

git push 

will use the specified command instead of

ssh 

   when they need to connect to a remote system. The command-line
   parameters passed to the configured command are determined by
   the ssh variant. See

ssh.variant option in git-config(1) 

for
   details.

$GIT_SSH_COMMAND takes precedence over $GIT_SSH , and is 

   interpreted by the shell, which allows additional arguments to
   be included.

$GIT_SSH on the other hand must be just the path 

   to a program (which can be a wrapper shell script, if
   additional arguments are needed).

   Usually it is easier to configure any desired options through
   your personal

.ssh/config file. Please consult your ssh 

   documentation for further details.

GIT_SSH_VARIANT 

   If this environment variable is set, it overrides Git’s
   autodetection whether

GIT_SSH / GIT_SSH_COMMAND / core.sshCommand 

   refer to OpenSSH, plink or tortoiseplink. This variable
   overrides the config setting

ssh.variant that serves the same 

   purpose.

GIT_SSL_NO_VERIFY 

   Sättting and exporting this environment variable to any value
   tells Git not to verify the SSL certificate when fetching or
   pushing over HTTPS.

GIT_ATTR_SOURCE 

   Sätts the treeish that gitattributes will be read from.

GIT_ASKPASS 

   If this environment variable is set, then Git commands which
   need to acquire passwords or passphrases (e.g. for HTTP or
   IMAP authentication) will call this program with a suitable
   prompt as command-line argument and read the password from its
   STDOUT. Se also the

core.askPass option in git-config(1) .

GIT_TERMINAL_PROMPT 

   If this Boolean environment variable is set to false, git will
   not prompt on the terminal (e.g., when asking for HTTP
   authentication).

GIT_CONFIG_GLOBAL , GIT_CONFIG_SYSTEM 

   Take the configuration from the given files instead from
   global or system-level configuration files. If

GIT_CONFIG_SYSTEM is set, the system config file defined at 

   build time (usually

/etc/gitconfig ) will not be read. 

   Likewise, if

GIT_CONFIG_GLOBAL is set, neither

$HOME/.gitconfig nor $XDG_CONFIG_HOME/git/config will be read. 

   Can be set to

/dev/null to skip reading configuration files of 

   the respective level.

GIT_CONFIG_NOSYSTEM 

   Whether to skip reading settings from the system-wide

$ ( prefix ) /etc/gitconfig file. This Boolean environment 

   variable can be used along with

$HOME and $XDG_CONFIG_HOME to 

   create a predictable environment for a picky script, or you
   can set it to true to temporarily avoid using a buggy

/etc/gitconfig file while waiting for someone with sufficient 

   permissions to fix it.

GIT_FLUSH 

   If this Boolean environment variable is set to true, then
   commands such as

git blame 

(in incremental mode),

git

rev-list , git log , git check-attr 

and

git check-ignore 

will
   force a flush of the output stream after each record have been
   flushed. If this variable is set to false, the output of these
   commands will be done using completely buffered I/O. If this
   environment variable is not set, Git will choose buffered or
   record-oriented flushing based on whether stdout appears to be
   redirected to a file or not.

GIT_TRACE 

   Enables general trace messages, e.g. alias expansion, built-in
   command execution and external command execution.

   If this variable is set to "1", "2" or "true" (comparison is
   case insensitive), trace messages will be printed to stderr.

   If the variable is set to an integer value greater than 2 and
   lower than 10 (strictly) then Git will interpret this value as
   an open file descriptor and will try to write the trace
   messages into this file descriptor.

   Alternatively, if the variable is set to an absolute path
   (starting with a

/ 

character), Git will interpret this as a
   file path and will try to append the trace messages to it.

   Unsetting the variable, or setting it to empty, "0" or "false"
   (case insensitive) disables trace messages.

GIT_TRACE_FSMONITOR 

   Enables trace messages for the filesystem monitor extension.
   See

GIT_TRACE for available trace output options.

GIT_TRACE_PACK_ACCESS 

   Enables trace messages for all accesses to any packs. For each
   access, the pack file name and an offset in the pack is
   recorded. This may be helpful for troubleshooting some
   pack-related performance problems. See

GIT_TRACE for available 

   trace output options.

GIT_TRACE_PACKET 

   Enables trace messages for all packets coming in or out of a
   given program. This can help with debugging object negotiation
   or other protocol issues. Tracing is turned off at a packet
   starting with "PACK" (but see

GIT_TRACE_PACKFILE below). See

GIT_TRACE for available trace output options.

GIT_TRACE_PACKFILE 

   Enables tracing of packfiles sent or received by a given
   program. Unlike other trace output, this trace is verbatim: no
   headers, and no quoting of binary data. You almost certainly
   want to direct into a file (e.g.,

GIT_TRACE_PACKFILE=/tmp/my.pack ) rather than displaying it on 

   the terminal or mixing it with other trace output.

   Note that this is currently only implemented for the client
   side of clones and fetches.

GIT_TRACE_PERFORMANCE 

   Enables performance related trace messages, e.g. total
   execution time of each Git command. See

GIT_TRACE for 

   available trace output options.

GIT_TRACE_REFS 

   Enables trace messages for operations on the ref database. See

GIT_TRACE for available trace output options.

GIT_TRACE_SETUP 

   Enables trace messages printing the .git, working tree and
   current working directory after Git has completed its setup
   phase. See

GIT_TRACE for available trace output options.

GIT_TRACE_SHALLOW 

   Enables trace messages that can help debugging fetching /
   cloning of shallow repositories. See

GIT_TRACE for available 

   trace output options.

GIT_TRACE_CURL 

   Enables a curl full trace dump of all incoming and outgoing
   data, including descriptive information, of the git transport
   protocol. This is similar to doing curl

--trace-ascii on the 

   command line. See

GIT_TRACE for available trace output 

   options.

GIT_TRACE_CURL_NO_DATA 

   When a curl trace is enabled (see

GIT_TRACE_CURL above), do 

   not dump data (that is, only dump info lines and headers).

GIT_TRACE2 

   Enables more detailed trace messages from the "trace2"
   library. Output from

GIT_TRACE2 is a simple text-based format 

   for human readability.

   If this variable is set to "1", "2" or "true" (comparison is
   case insensitive), trace messages will be printed to stderr.

   If the variable is set to an integer value greater than 2 and
   lower than 10 (strictly) then Git will interpret this value as
   an open file descriptor and will try to write the trace
   messages into this file descriptor.

   Alternatively, if the variable is set to an absolute path
   (starting with a

/ 

character), Git will interpret this as a
   file path and will try to append the trace messages to it. If
   the path already exists and is a directory, the trace messages
   will be written to files (one per process) in that directory,
   named according to the last component of the SID and an
   optional counter (to avoid filename collisions).

   In addition, if the variable is set to

af_unix: [ <socket-type>

] <absolute-pathname> , Git will try to 

   open the path as a Unix Domain Socket. The socket type can be
   either

stream or dgram . 

   Unsetting the variable, or setting it to empty, "0" or "false"
   (case insensitive) disables trace messages.

   See

Trace2 documentation [2] for full details.

GIT_TRACE2_EVENT 

   This setting writes a JSON-based format that is svitend for
   machine interpretation. See

GIT_TRACE2 for available trace 

   output options and

Trace2 documentation [2] for full details.

GIT_TRACE2_PERF 

   In addition to the text-based messages available in

GIT_TRACE2 , this setting writes a column-based format for 

   understanding nesting regions. See

GIT_TRACE2 for available 

   trace output options and

Trace2 documentation [2] for full 

   details.

GIT_TRACE_REDACT 

   By default, when tracing is activated, Git redacts the values
   of cookies, the "Authorization:" header, the
   "Proxy-Authorization:" header and packfile URIs. Sätt this
   Boolean environment variable to false to prevent this
   redaction.

GIT_NO_REPLACE_OBJECTS 

   Sättting and exporting this environment variable tells Git to
   ignore replacement refs and do not replace Git objects.

GIT_LITERAL_PATHSPECS 

   Sättting this Boolean environment variable to true will cause
   Git to treat all pathspecs literally, rather than as glob
   patterns. For example, running

GIT_LITERAL_PATHSPECS=1 git log

-- '*.c' will search for commits that touch the path

  • .c

, not 

   any paths that the glob
  • .c

matches. You might want this if 

   you are feeding literal paths to Git (e.g., paths previously
   given to you by

git ls-tree , --raw diff output, etc).

GIT_GLOB_PATHSPECS 

   Sättting this Boolean environment variable to true will cause
   Git to treat all pathspecs as glob patterns (aka "glob"
   magic).

GIT_NOGLOB_PATHSPECS 

   Sättting this Boolean environment variable to true will cause
   Git to treat all pathspecs as literal (aka "literal" magic).

GIT_ICASE_PATHSPECS 

   Sättting this Boolean environment variable to true will cause
   Git to treat all pathspecs as case-insensitive.

GIT_NO_LAZY_FETCH 

   Sättting this Boolean environment variable to true tells Git
   not to lazily fetch missing objects from the promisor remote
   on demand.

GIT_REFLOG_ACTION 

   When a ref is updated, reflog entries are created to keep
   track of the reason why the ref was updated (which is
   typically the name of the high-level command that updated the
   ref), in addition to the old and new values of the ref. A
   scripted Porcelain command can use set_reflog_action helper
   function in

git-sh-setup to set its name to this variable when 

   it is invoked as the top level command by the end user, to be
   recorded in the body of the reflog.

GIT_REF_PARANOIA 

   If this Boolean environment variable is set to false, ignore
   broken or badly named refs when iterating over lists of refs.
   Normally Git will try to include any such refs, which may
   cause some operations to fail. This is usually preferable, as
   potentially destructive operations (e.g.,

git-prune(1) ) are 

   better off aborting rather than ignoring broken refs (and thus
   considering the history they point to as not worth saving).
   The default value is

1 (i.e., be paranoid about detecting and 

   aborting all operations). You should not normally need to set
   this to

0 , but it may be useful when trying to salvage data 

   from a corrupted repository.

GIT_COMMIT_GRAPH_PARANOIA 

   When loading a commit object from the commit-graph, Git
   performs an existence check on the object in the object
   database. This is done to avoid issues with stale
   commit-graphs that contain references to already-deleted
   commits, but comes with a performance penalty.

   The default is "false", which disables the aforementioned
   behavior. Sättting this to "true" enables the existence check
   so that stale commits will never be returned from the
   commit-graph at the cost of performance.

GIT_ALLOW_PROTOCOL 

   If set to a colon-separated list of protocols, behave as if

protocol.allow is set to never , and each of the listed 

   protocols has

protocol. <name> .allow set to always (overriding 

   any existing configuration). Se the description of

protocol.allow in git-config(1) 

for more details.

GIT_PROTOCOL_FROM_USER 

   Sätt this Boolean environment variable to false to prevent
   protocols used by fetch/push/clone which are configured to the

user state. This is useful to restrict recursive submodule 

   initialization from an untrusted repository or for programs
   which feed potentially-untrusted URLS to git commands. See

git-config(1) 

for more details.

GIT_PROTOCOL 

   For internal use only. Used in handshaking the wire protocol.
   Contains a colon

separated list of keys with optional values

<key>[=<value>] . Presence of unknown keys and values must be 

   ignored.

   Note that servers may need to be configured to allow this
   variable to pass over some transports. It will be propagated
   automatically when accessing local repositories (i.e.,

file:// 

   or a filesystem path), as well as over the

git:// protocol. 

   For git-over-http, it should work automatically in most
   configurations, but see the discussion in

git-http-backend(1) . 

   For git-over-ssh, the ssh server may need to be configured to
   allow clients to pass this variable (e.g., by using

AcceptEnv

GIT_PROTOCOL with OpenSSH). 

   This configuration is optional. If the variable is not
   propagated, then clients will fall back to the original "v0"
   protocol (but may miss out on some performance improvements or
   features). This variable currently only affects clones and
   fetches; it is not yet used for pushes (but may be in the
   future).

GIT_OPTIONAL_LOCKS 

   If this Boolean environment variable is set to false, Git will
   complete any requested operation without performing any
   optional sub-operations that require taking a lock. For
   example, this will prevent

git status from refreshing the 

   index as a side effect. This is useful for processes running
   in the background which do not want to cause lock contention
   with other operations on the repository. Defaults to

1 .

GIT_REDIRECT_STDIN , GIT_REDIRECT_STDOUT , GIT_REDIRECT_STDERR 

   Windows-only: allow redirecting the standard
   input/output/error handles to paths specified by the
   environment variables. This is particularly useful in
   multi-threaded applications where the canonical way to pass
   standard handles via

CreateProcess () is not an option because 

   it would require the handles to be marked inheritable (and
   consequently

every spawned process would inherit them, 

   possibly blocking regular Git operations). The primary
   intended use case is to use named pipes for communication
   (e.g.

\\.\pipe\my-git-stdin-123 ). 

   Two special values are supported:

off will simply close the 

   corresponding standard handle, and if

GIT_REDIRECT_STDERR is

2 >&1, standard error will be redirected to the same handle as 

   standard output.

GIT_PRINT_SHA1_ELLIPSIS (deprecated) 

   If set to

yes , print an ellipsis following an (abbreviated) 

   SHA-1 value. This affects indications of detached HEADs (‐

git-checkout(1) ) and the raw diff output ( git-diff(1) ). 

   Printing an ellipsis in the cases mentioned is no longer
   considered adequate and support for it is likely to be removed
   in the foreseeable future (along with the variable).

GIT_ADVICE 

   If set to

0 , then disable all advice messages. These messages 

   are intended to provide hints to human users that may help
   them get out of problematic situations or take advantage of
   new features. Users can disable individual messages using the

advice.* config keys. These messages may be disruptive to 

   tools that execute Git processes, so this variable is
   available to disable the messages. (The

--no-advice global 

   option is also available, but old Git versions may fail when
   this option is not understood. The environment variable will
   be ignored by Git versions that do not understand it.)


Diskussion

More detail on the following is available from the Git concepts

chapter of the user-manual [3] and gitcore-tutorial(7) .

A Git project normally consists of a working directory with a ".git" subdirectory at the top level. The .git directory contains, among other things, a compressed object database representing the complete history of the project, an "index" file which links that history to the current contents of the working tree, and named pointers into that history such as tags and branch heads.

The object database contains objects of three main types: blobs, which hold file data; trees, which point to blobs and other trees to build up directory hierarchies; and commits, which each reference a single tree and some number of parent commits.

The commit, equivalent to what other systems call a "changeset" or "version", represents a step in the project’s history, and each parent represents an immediately preceding step. Commits with more than one parent represent merges of independent lines of development.

All objects are named by the SHA-1 hash of their contents, normally written as a string of 40 hex digits. Such names are globally unique. The entire history leading up to a commit can be vouched for by signing just that commit. A fourth object type, the tag, is provided for this purpose.

When first created, objects are stored in individual files, but for efficiency may later be compressed together into "pack files".

Named pointers called refs mark interesting points in history. A ref may contain the SHA-1 name of an object or the name of another ref (the latter is called a "symbolic ref"). Refs with names beginning refs/head/ contain the SHA-1 name of the most recent commit (or "head") of a branch under development. SHA-1 names of tags of interest are stored under refs/tags/ . A symbolic ref named

HEAD contains the name of the currently checked-out branch.

The index file is initialized with a list of all paths and, for each path, a blob object and a set of attributes. The blob object represents the contents of the file as of the head of the current branch. The attributes (last modified time, size, etc.) are taken from the corresponding file in the working tree. Subsequent changes to the working tree can be found by comparing these attributes. The index may be updated with new content, and new commits may be created from the content stored in the index.

The index is also capable of storing multiple entries (called "stages") for a given pathname. These stages are used to hold the various unmerged version of a file when a merge is in progress.


Säkerhet

Vissa konfigurationsalternativ och hook-filer kan få Git att köra godtyckliga skalkommandon. Eftersom konfiguration och hooks inte kopieras med git clone , är det i allmänhet säkert att clone remote repositories with untrusted content, inspect them with git log , and so on.

However, it is not safe to run Git commands in a .git directory (or the working tree that surrounds it) when that .git directory itself comes from an untrusted source. The commands in its config and hooks are executed in the usual way.

By default, Git will refuse to run when the repository is owned by someone other than the user running the command. Se the entry for

safe.directory in git-config(1) . While this can help protect you in a multi-user environment, note that you can also acquire untrusted repositories that are owned by you (for example, if you extract a zip file or tarball from an untrusted source). In such cases, you’d need to "sanitize" the untrusted repository first.

If you have an untrusted .git directory, you should first clone it with git clone --no-local to obtain a clean copy. Git does restrict the set of options and hooks that will be run by

upload-pack , which handles the server side of a clone or fetch, but beware that the surface area for attack against upload-pack is large, so this does carry some risk. The safest thing is to serve the repository as an unprivileged user (either via git-daemon(1) , ssh, or using other tools to change user ids). Se the discussion in the SECURITY section of git-upload-pack(1) .
