The bundle v3 format introduces an ability to have the bundle header
(which describes what references in the bundled history can be
fetched, and what objects the receiving repository must have in
order to unbundle it successfully) in one file, and the bundled pack
stream data in a separate file.
A v3 bundle file begins with a line with "# v3 git bundle", followed
by zero or more "extended header" lines, and an empty line, finally
followed by the list of prerequisites and references in the same
format as v2 bundle. If it uses the "split bundle" feature, there
is a "data: $URL" extended header line, and nothing follows the list
of prerequisites and references. Also, "sha1: " extended header
line may exist to help validating that the pack stream data matches
the bundle header.
A typical expected use of a split bundle is to help initial clone
that involves a huge data transfer, and would go like this:
- Any repository people would clone and fetch from would regularly
be repacked, and it is expected that there would be a packfile
without prerequisites that holds all (or at least most) of the
history of it (call it pack-$name.pack).
- After arranging that packfile to be downloadable over popular
transfer methods used for serving static files (such as HTTP or
HTTPS) that are easily resumable as $URL/pack-$name.pack, a v3
bundle file (call it $name.bndl) can be prepared with an extended
header "data: $URL/pack-$name.pack" to point at the download
location for the packfile, and be served at "$URL/$name.bndl".
- An updated Git client, when trying to "git clone" from such a
repository, may be redirected to $URL/$name.bndl", which would be
a tiny text file (when split bundle feature is used).
- The client would then inspect the downloaded $name.bndl, learn
that the corresponding packfile exists at $URL/pack-$name.pack,
and downloads it as pack-$name.pack, until the download succeeds.
This can easily be done with "wget --continue" equivalent over an
unreliable link. The checksum recorded on the "sha1: " header
line is expected to be used by this downloader (not written yet).
- After fully downloading $name.bndl and pack-$name.pack and
storing them next to each other, the client would clone from the
$name.bndl; this would populate the newly created repository with
reasonably recent history.
- Then the client can issue "git fetch" against the original
repository to obtain the most recent part of the history created
since the bundle was made.
