9.5 Git Internals - The Refspec

9.5 Git Internals - The Refspec

The Refspec

Throughout this book, you’ve used simple mappings from remote branches to local references; but they can be more complex. Suppose you add a remote like this:
$ git remote add origin git@github.com:schacon/simplegit-progit.git
It adds a section to your .git/config file, specifying the name of the remote (origin), the URL of the remote repository, and the refspec for fetching:
[remote "origin"]
       url = git@github.com:schacon/simplegit-progit.git
       fetch = +refs/heads/*:refs/remotes/origin/*
The format of the refspec is an optional +, followed by <src>:<dst>, where <src> is the pattern for references on the remote side and <dst> is where those references will be written locally. The + tells Git to update the reference even if it isn’t a fast-forward.
In the default case that is automatically written by a git remote add command, Git fetches all the references under refs/heads/ on the server and writes them to refs/remotes/origin/ locally. So, if there is a master branch on the server, you can access the log of that branch locally via
$ git log origin/master
$ git log remotes/origin/master
$ git log refs/remotes/origin/master
They’re all equivalent, because Git expands each of them to refs/remotes/origin/master.
If you want Git instead to pull down only the master branch each time, and not every other branch on the remote server, you can change the fetch line to
fetch = +refs/heads/master:refs/remotes/origin/master
This is just the default refspec for git fetch for that remote. If you want to do something one time, you can specify the refspec on the command line, too. To pull the master branch on the remote down to origin/mymaster locally, you can run
$ git fetch origin master:refs/remotes/origin/mymaster
You can also specify multiple refspecs. On the command line, you can pull down several branches like so:
$ git fetch origin master:refs/remotes/origin/mymaster \
   topic:refs/remotes/origin/topic
From git@github.com:schacon/simplegit
 ! [rejected]        master     -> origin/mymaster  (non fast forward)
 * [new branch]      topic      -> origin/topic
In this case, the master branch pull was rejected because it wasn’t a fast-forward reference. You can override that by specifying the + in front of the refspec.
You can also specify multiple refspecs for fetching in your configuration file. If you want to always fetch the master and experiment branches, add two lines:
[remote "origin"]
       url = git@github.com:schacon/simplegit-progit.git
       fetch = +refs/heads/master:refs/remotes/origin/master
       fetch = +refs/heads/experiment:refs/remotes/origin/experiment
You can’t use partial globs in the pattern, so this would be invalid:
fetch = +refs/heads/qa*:refs/remotes/origin/qa*
However, you can use namespacing to accomplish something like that. If you have a QA team that pushes a series of branches, and you want to get the master branch and any of the QA team’s branches but nothing else, you can use a config section like this:
[remote "origin"]
       url = git@github.com:schacon/simplegit-progit.git
       fetch = +refs/heads/master:refs/remotes/origin/master
       fetch = +refs/heads/qa/*:refs/remotes/origin/qa/*
If you have a complex workflow process that has a QA team pushing branches, developers pushing branches, and integration teams pushing and collaborating on remote branches, you can namespace them easily this way.

Pushing Refspecs

It’s nice that you can fetch namespaced references that way, but how does the QA team get their branches into a qa/ namespace in the first place? You accomplish that by using refspecs to push.
If the QA team wants to push their master branch to qa/master on the remote server, they can run
$ git push origin master:refs/heads/qa/master
If they want Git to do that automatically each time they run git push origin, they can add a pushvalue to their config file:
[remote "origin"]
       url = git@github.com:schacon/simplegit-progit.git
       fetch = +refs/heads/*:refs/remotes/origin/*
       push = refs/heads/master:refs/heads/qa/master
Again, this will cause a git push origin to push the local master branch to the remote qa/masterbranch by default.

Deleting References

You can also use the refspec to delete references from the remote server by running something like this:
$ git push origin :topic
Because the refspec is <src>:<dst>, by leaving off the <src> part, this basically says to make the topic branch on the remote nothing, which deletes it.
