 DESCRIPTION
@@ -64,6 +64,11 @@ base-name::
 	This flag causes an object already in a pack ignored
 	even if it appears in the standard input.
 
+--local::
+	This flag is similar to `--incremental`; instead of
+	ignoring all packed objects, it only ignores objects
+	that are packed and not in the local object store
+	(i.e. borrowed from an alternate).
