Other examples to look at:

 git cinnabar 

 remote-testsvn.c in git.git (though it will be moving to contrib/ and
 then out of git.git fairly soon)

These might be more helpful than git-remote-http because they are
fast-import-based helpers.

Thanks and hope that helps,
Jonathan

There's some documentation in "git help remote-helpers".

For working examples (of this or any other remote-helper stuff), your
best bet is the git-remote-http helper that ships with Git. E.g., you
should be able to do:

  echo list | git remote-http https://github.com/git/git

to see sample output.

git-remote-helper list command question

[Stanisław Drozd]

I'm trying to write a fast-import-based git remote helper, but I'm not sure 
what the output of the `list` command should look like. How can I find an 
example of the format in action?

Thanks,
Stan
