10 | -------- | |
024510c8 | 11 | 'git-hash-object' [-t <type>] [-w] [--stdin] [--] <file>... |

13 | DESCRIPTION | |
14 | ----------- | |
15 | Computes the object ID value for an object with specified type | |
16 | with the contents of the named file (which can be outside of the | |
17 | work tree), and optionally writes the resulting object into the | |
18 | object database. Reports its object ID to its standard output. | |
5f3aa197 | 19 | This is used by "git-cvsimport" to update the index |
7672db20 BL |
20 | without modifying files in the work tree. When <type> is not |
21 | specified, it defaults to "blob". | |
