Or is that something designed to be used inside the git execution?

Why does fetch-pack not works over http?
Dear all, We're wondering why "fetch-pack" (when is running from the command line) doesn't handle "https://"; protocol. It only works with "git://". For instance, this doesn't work: $ git fetch-pack https://github.com/git/git refs/heads/master fatal: I don't handle protocol 'https' while this does: $ git fetch-pack git://github.com/git/git refs/heads/master The funny thing is that under the hood, "fetch" calls "fetch-pack" using "https" procotol. Example of a trace below: 12:03:07.512558 git.c:344 trace: built-in: git 'fetch- pack' '--stateless-rpc' '--stdin' '--lock-pack' '--thin' 'https://githu b.com/git/git/' Cheers -- Alvaro del Castillo San Félix a...@bitergia.com - Chief Technical Officer (CTO) http://www.bitergia.com "Software metrics for your peace of mind"
