15 | DESCRIPTION | |
16 | ----------- | |
fb3010c3 JK |
17 | Read the `.idx` file for a Git packfile (created with |
18 | linkgit:git-pack-objects[1] or linkgit:git-index-pack[1]) from the | |
19 | standard input, and dump its contents. The output consists of one object | |
20 | per line, with each line containing two or three space-separated | |
21 | columns: | |
5f40520f | 22 | |
fb3010c3 JK |
23 | - the first column is the offset in bytes of the object within the |
24 | corresponding packfile | |
25 | ||
26 | - the second column is the object id of the object | |
27 | ||
28 | - if the index version is 2 or higher, the third column contains the | |
29 | CRC32 of the object data | |
30 | ||
31 | The objects are output in the order in which they are found in the index | |
32 | file, which should be (in a correctly constructed file) sorted by object | |
33 | id. | |
34 | ||
35 | Note that you can get more information on a packfile by calling | |
36 | linkgit:git-verify-pack[1]. However, as this command considers only the | |
37 | index file itself, it's both faster and more flexible. | |
