+git-upload-pack(1)
+==================
+
+NAME
+----
+git-upload-pack - Send objects packed back to git-fetch-pack
+
+
+SYNOPSIS
+--------
+'git upload-pack' [--strict] [--timeout=<n>] <directory>
+
+DESCRIPTION
+-----------
+Invoked by 'git-fetch-pack', learns what
+objects the other side is missing, and sends them after packing.
+
+This command is usually not invoked directly by the end user.
+The UI for the protocol is on the 'git-fetch-pack' side, and the
+program pair is meant to be used to pull updates from a remote
+repository. For push operations, see 'git-send-pack'.
+
+
+OPTIONS
+-------
+
+--strict::
+ Do not try <directory>/.git/ if <directory> is no git directory.
+
+--timeout=<n>::
+ Interrupt transfer after <n> seconds of inactivity.
+
+<directory>::
+ The repository to sync from.
