Enum CloneSource 

pub enum CloneSource {
    Http(RemoteUrl),
    Ssh(RemoteUrl),
    Git(RemoteUrl),
    Local {
        git_dir: PathBuf,
        common_git_dir: PathBuf,
    },
}

How clone reaches the remote it is cloning from.

The caller resolves the remote (URL rewriting, repository discovery — all process-state dependent) and hands clone a concrete transport.

Variants

Http(RemoteUrl)

A smart-HTTP(S) remote at the given already-resolved URL.

Ssh(RemoteUrl)

An SSH remote at the given already-resolved URL. Fetched by spawning ssh (the credential seam is unused — the ssh program owns authentication).

Git(RemoteUrl)

A native anonymous git:// remote at the given already-resolved URL.

Local

A local repository served in-process from git_dir.

Fields

git_dir: PathBuf

The remote repository’s $GIT_DIR.

common_git_dir: PathBuf

The remote repository’s common $GIT_DIR (object format source).
