OK, I see, so please define "get" in "get all the refs ...". I have just bundled one of my repos which has remote branches using git bundle create <whatever> --all and git bundle list-heads <whatever> | grep remote does indeed list remote branches. So are you asking about actually "fetching" them into your local repository you'd like to "clone" from the bundle? That is, you bundle a repo and then "unbundle" it to have it in the exact state the original repo was -- with all the remote branches in it? If yes, I already explained to you how to do that in my response to your original mail--in essense, that's git init foo; cd $_ git fetch -u /path/to/bundle/file 'refs/*:refs/*' git reset --hard Have you actually tried it?
