Only the repository located at PATH (no sub-directories are considered) is accessible. Can be specified multiple times to allow the client access to several repositories. Unlike ``--restrict-to-path`` sub-directories are not accessible; PATH needs to point directly at a repository location. PATH may be an empty directory or the last element of PATH may not exist, in which case the client may initialize a repository there. |
