ostree find-remotes [Options...] {COLLECTION-ID} {REF} [COLLECTION-ID REF...]

OSTree has the ability to pull not just from the configured remote servers but also from peer computers on the LAN and from mounted filesystems such as USB drives​. This functionality requires the use of collection IDs and GPG verification​.

The find-remotes command searches for remotes which claim to provide one or more of the given COLLECTION-ID REF pairs and prints information about them, with remotes sorted by latency (Mounts > LAN > Internet)​. By default, OSTree searches for remotes in configuration files, on mounted filesystems (in a well-known location), and on the LAN using Avahi​. Searching for LAN remotes requires OSTree to have been compiled with Avahi support, and it requires an Avahi daemon to be running​. You can override the default set of finders (sources for remotes) using the --finders option documented below​.

The create-usb command is the recommended way to put refs on a USB such that find-remotes will discover them​. See ostree-create-usb(1)​.

--cache-dir=DIR

Use an alternate cache directory in DIR​.

--disable-fsync

Do not invoke fsync()​.

--finders=FINDERS

Use the specified comma separated list of finders rather than the default set​. Possible values: config, lan, and mount (or any combination thereof)​.

--pull

Pull the most recent commit found for each ref​.

--mirror

Do a mirror pull (see the documentation for ostree pull --mirror)​. This option can only be used in combination with --pull​.
