NAME
       git-update-server-info - Update auxiliary info file to help dumb
       servers

SYNOPSIS
       git-update-server-info [--force]

DESCRIPTION
       A dumb server that does not do on-the-fly pack generations must have
       some auxiliary information files in $GIT_DIR/info and
       $GIT_OBJECT_DIRECTORY/info directories to help clients discover what
       references and packs the server has. This command generates such
       auxiliary files.

OPTIONS
       -f|--force
	      Update the info files from scratch.

OUTPUT
       Currently the command updates the following files. Please see
       [1]repository-layout for description of what they are for:

       ·  objects/info/packs

       ·  info/refs

BUGS
       When you remove an existing ref, the command fails to update info/refs
       file unless --force flag is given.
