git-peek-remote1
List the references in a remote repository
Usage
git peek-remote
[--upload-pack=<git-upload-pack>]
[<host>:]
<directory>
Overview
This command is deprecated; use git ls-remote instead.
Options
-
--upload-pack=<git-upload-pack> -
Use this to specify the path to git-upload-pack on the remote side, if it is not found on your $PATH. Some installations of sshd ignores the user’s environment setup scripts for login shells (e.g. .bash_profile) and your privately installed git may not be found on the system default $PATH. Another workaround suggested is to set up your $PATH in ".bashrc", but this flag is for people who do not want to pay the overhead for non-interactive shells, but prefer having a lean .bashrc file (they set most of the things up in .bash_profile).
<host>
A remote host that houses the repository. When this part is specified, git-upload-pack is invoked via ssh.
<directory>
The repository to sync from.
Git
Part of the git(1) suite
