| 4 | NAME | |
| 5 | ---- | |
| c3f0baac | 6 | git-write-tree - Create a tree object from the current index |
| 2cf565c5 DG |

| 9 | SYNOPSIS | |
| 10 | -------- | |
| b1889c36 | 11 | 'git write-tree' [--missing-ok] [--prefix=<prefix>/] |
| 2cf565c5 DG |
12 | |
| 13 | DESCRIPTION | |
| 14 | ----------- | |
| 8d951843 DK |
15 | Creates a tree object using the current index. The name of the new |
| 16 | tree object is printed to standard output. | |
| 2cf565c5 | 17 | |
| 61f693bd | 18 | The index must be in a fully merged state. |
| 2cf565c5 | 19 | |
| 0b444cdb | 20 | Conceptually, 'git write-tree' sync()s the current index contents |
| 2cf565c5 DG |
21 | into a set of tree files. |
| 22 | In order to have that match what is actually in your directory right | |
| 0b444cdb TR |
23 | now, you need to have done a 'git update-index' phase before you did the |
| 24 | 'git write-tree'. | |

27 | OPTIONS |
| 28 | ------- | |
| 29 | --missing-ok:: | |
| 0b444cdb | 30 | Normally 'git write-tree' ensures that the objects referenced by the |
| 61f693bd JL |
31 | directory exist in the object database. This option disables this |
| 32 | check. | |

| 6bd20358 JH |
34 | --prefix=<prefix>/:: |
| 35 | Writes a tree object that represents a subdirectory | |
| 36 | `<prefix>`. This can be used to write the tree object | |
| 37 | for a subproject that is in the named subdirectory. | |
