The command git scp ${remote_name} ${filename1 filename2 ---}
is using the git scp
feature to securely copy one or multiple files between the local repository and a remote repository.
Here is a breakdown of the command:
-
${remote_name}
: This is the name of the remote repository you want to copy the files to or from. It should be a configured remote you have previously added using thegit remote add
command. -
${filename1 filename2 ---}
: These are the names of the files you want to copy. You can specify one or more files, separated by spaces. The filenames should be relative to the project directory.
When you run this command, it will use the git scp
feature to securely transfer the specified file(s) between the local and remote repositories. The exact behavior may vary depending on the configuration of the remote repository and the available SSH keys.
It's important to note that git scp
is not a standard Git command but rather an extension or alias provided by some Git distributions or plugins. If you don't have the git scp
feature available, you can achieve similar functionality using standard SSH commands or by configuring a different Git transport protocol like HTTPS.
