GIT-UBUNTU-REMOTE(1)

GIT-UBUNTU-REMOTE(1) πŸ’…

okay bestie, welcome to the git-ubuntu manual, section 1 of the Git-Ubuntu Manual. yes that's the vibe, let's go ✨


✨ NAME ✨

git-ubuntu-remote β€” manage Launchpad source package Git remotes πŸ¦‹


✨ SYNOPSIS ✨

git ubuntu remote [-d | --directory <directory>] [-l | --lp-user
<lp_user>] [-r | --remote-name <name>] [--no-fetch] [--package
<package>] add <user> [<url>]

✨ DESCRIPTION ✨

so like, Launchpad source package repos live at well-defined locations for any given username. iconic behaviour honestly. πŸ‘‘

this subcommand lets you add those well-defined locations straight into a local git(1) repository. and once it's added?? the remote can be manipulated like literally any other Git remote. no special treatment, no drama, it's just a remote now. periodt. πŸ’…


✨ OPTIONS ✨

  • -d <directory>, --directory <directory> β€” the local directory you wanna manage the remote in πŸŽ€ if you don't specify one, it just uses the current directory. easy.
  • -l <lp_user>, --lp-user <lp_user> β€” the Launchpad user to authenticate as, for push URLs πŸ”
  • -r, --remote-name <name> β€” the remote name to use ✨ if you don't specify it, the remote gets named "<user>". cute and predictable.
  • --no-fetch β€” do not fetch the remote after adding it πŸ™ˆ sometimes you just want the remote and no fetching, we get it.
  • --package <package> β€” the source package (and therefore the repository) to download from this user πŸ“¦ by default, the source package is derived from the current directory's debian/changelog.
  • <user> β€” the Launchpad username that owns the repository you're adding πŸ‘€
  • <url> β€” the URL to add as a remote 🌸 if the auto-derived URL from <user> and the debian/changelog's source package isn't what you want, you can just specify it manually. main character energy.

✨ EXIT STATUS ✨

git ubuntu remote exits with status 0 if the command completes successfully 🫢 and it exits with nonzero exit status on errors. that's it, that's the tea. 😭
