gat fetch

Usage: gat fetch [OPTIONS]

Options:
      --selection <NAME>
          Use this saved selection for this operation without changing the
          default

      --path <PATH>
          Select this file or subtree. Any explicit --path, --include, or
          --exclude replaces the complete configured selection. Use --path . for
          the whole repository. For mount add, omission selects the source root;
          repository selection defaults never apply to mounts

      --include <INCLUDE>
          Glob pattern (matched relative to `--path`) selecting which paths to
          include. Repeatable. Component-aware: `*.bin` matches only immediate
          children, while `**/*.bin` matches recursively. Empty means everything
          under `--path`

      --exclude <EXCLUDE>
          Glob pattern (matched relative to `--path`) excluded from `--include`
          (or from everything under `--path`, if `--include` is empty).
          Repeatable. Component-aware like `--include`; exclude always wins over
          include

      --remote <REMOTE>
          Remote to fetch from. Defaults to the configured default remote

      --rev <REV>
          Explicit revision/rev-spec to select (e.g. a commit, tag, or branch
          name). Repeatable; each one is resolved strictly and becomes its own
          root. Alone (with no other history flag), selects only that revision
          itself -- add `--ancestors`/`--depth`/`--since`/`--until` to also walk
          its ancestry. Combinable with `--branches`/`--tags`; mutually
          exclusive with `--all-history`

      --branches
          Select every branch tip: local (`refs/heads/**`) and remote-tracking
          (`refs/remotes/**`), deduplicated by commit id. There is no separate
          remote-tracking-only flag -- select a specific remote-tracking ref
          with `--rev origin/main`. Alone, selects only those tip commits
          themselves, not their ancestry -- combine with `--ancestors` (or
          `--depth`) to also walk backwards from each tip. A branch that
          *validly* resolves to a non-commit object is silently skipped rather
          than erroring; but a branch ref that *fails* to resolve at all
          (dangling, corrupt, unreadable) makes resolution fail closed with an
          error instead. Combinable with `--rev`/`--tags`; mutually exclusive
          with `--all-history`

      --tags
          Select every tag, peeled to the commit it points at. Alone, selects
          only those tagged commits themselves, not their ancestry -- combine
          with `--ancestors` (or `--depth`) to also walk backwards from each
          tag. A tag that *validly* resolves to a non-commit object (e.g. a tag
          pointing at a blob or tree) is silently skipped rather than erroring
          -- use an explicit `--rev` if you need that case to fail loudly; but a
          tag ref that *fails* to resolve at all makes resolution fail closed
          with an error instead. Combinable with `--rev`/`--branches`; mutually
          exclusive with `--all-history`

      --all-history
          Select every commit-bearing ref of any kind (branches, tags, and
          anything else, e.g. notes/CI refs) as roots, and walk each one's full,
          unbounded ancestry -- the only scope option that implicitly enables
          ancestry; every other scope option stays `Tips` unless a traversal
          flag is also given. A ref that *validly* resolves to a non-commit
          object (e.g. one pointing at a blob or tree) is silently skipped
          rather than erroring; but a ref that *fails* to resolve at all
          (dangling, corrupt, unreadable) makes resolution fail closed with an
          error instead. Combine with `--depth` to cap the walked depth per root
          instead of walking unbounded ancestry. Mutually exclusive with
          `--rev`/`--branches`/`--tags`: it is a distinct, broader root set, not
          a shorthand for combining them

      --ancestors
          Walk each selected root's full, unbounded ancestry (closest ancestors
          first, not commit-timestamp order) instead of selecting only the roots
          themselves. With no scope selector given (`--rev`/
          `--branches`/`--tags`/`--all-history`), the root defaults to `HEAD`
          alone. Mutually exclusive with `--depth` (which already implies
          walking ancestry, bounded)

      --depth <DEPTH>
          Limit ancestry traversal from each selected root to at most this many
          *visited* commits (closest ancestors first, not commit-timestamp
          order), then union/deduplicate across roots. This bounds how far the
          walk goes, not how many commits end up in the result: combined with
          `--since`/`--until`, a commit outside the time window still consumes
          one unit of the depth budget, so `--depth 5 --since DATE` can return
          fewer than 5 commits per root (even zero) without walking further than
          5 ancestors -- it never means "keep walking until 5 commits match".
          With no scope selector given
          (`--rev`/`--branches`/`--tags`/`--all-history`), the root defaults to
          `HEAD` alone -- `--depth 5` alone visits `HEAD` and its 4 closest
          ancestors, not 5 commits from every branch/tag. `--branches --depth 5`
          means up to 5 commits visited from *each* branch tip, not 5 total.
          `--all-history --depth 5` keeps `--all-history`'s root set (every
          commit-bearing ref) and only bounds that per-root walk to 5 commits
          each. Mutually exclusive with `--ancestors`

      --since <SINCE>
          Only include commits committed at/after this date. Accepts
          Git-style/ISO dates (e.g. `2024-01-01`, `2 weeks ago`). Implies
          walking ancestry from the selected roots to find commits in the time
          window, even without `--ancestors`/`--depth`; with no scope selector
          given, the root defaults to `HEAD` alone

      --until <UNTIL>
          Only include commits committed at/before this date. Accepts
          Git-style/ISO dates (e.g. `2024-01-01`, `2 weeks ago`). Implies
          walking ancestry from the selected roots to find commits in the time
          window, even without `--ancestors`/`--depth`; with no scope selector
          given, the root defaults to `HEAD` alone

      --first-parent
          Follow only the first parent of each commit instead of every parent
          (excludes commits only reachable via a merged-in branch). Only
          meaningful while walking ancestry -- implies walking it, even without
          `--ancestors`/`--depth`/`--since`/`--until`; with no scope selector
          given, the root defaults to `HEAD` alone (not every ref)

      --exclude-rev <EXCLUDE_REV>
          Exclude this revision and its ancestors from the selection.
          Repeatable. Only meaningful while walking ancestry -- implies walking
          it, even without `--ancestors`/`--depth`/`--since`/ `--until`; with no
          scope selector given, the root defaults to `HEAD` alone (not every
          ref)
