git bundle

Package objects and references into an archive. More information: https://git-scm.com/docs/git-bundle.

• Create a bundle file that contains all objects and references of a specific branch:

git bundle create path/to/file.bundle branch_name

• Create a bundle file of all branches:

git bundle create path/to/file.bundle --all

• Create a bundle file of the last 5 commits of the current branch:

git bundle create path/to/file.bundle -5 HEAD

• Create a bundle file of the latest 7 days:

git bundle create path/to/file.bundle --since 7.days HEAD

• Verify that a bundle file is valid and can be applied to the current repository:

git bundle verify path/to/file.bundle

• Print to stdout the list of references contained in a bundle:

git bundle unbundle path/to/file.bundle

• Unbundle a specific branch from a bundle file into the current repository:

git pull path/to/file.bundle branch_name

• Create a new repository from a bundle:

git clone path/to/file.bundle
