13 | DESCRIPTION | |
14 | ----------- | |
15 | ||
16 | This is reference information for the core git commands. | |
17 | ||
0d6a873c JH |
18 | Before reading this cover to cover, you may want to take a look |
19 | at the link:tutorial.html[tutorial] document. | |
20 | ||
8db9307c | 21 | The <<Discussion>> section below contains much useful definition and |
6c84e2e0 | 22 | clarification info - read that first. And of the commands, I suggest |
a7154e91 SV |
23 | reading gitlink:git-update-index[1] and |
24 | gitlink:git-read-tree[1] first - I wish I had! | |

27 | document may be helpful after you finish the tutorial. | |

29 | After you get the general feel from the tutorial and this |
30 | overview page, you may want to take a look at the | |

40 | Commands Overview | |
41 | ----------------- | |
42 | The git commands can helpfully be split into those that manipulate | |
2f2de9b4 JH |
43 | the repository, the cache and the working fileset, those that |
44 | interrogate and compare them, and those that moves objects and | |
45 | references between repositories. | |

62033318 JH |
47 | In addition, git itself comes with a spartan set of porcelain |
48 | commands. They are usable but are not meant to compete with real | |
49 | Porcelains. | |
50 | ||
90933efb | 51 | There are also some ancillary programs that can be viewed as useful |
204ee6a9 DG |
52 | aids for using the core commands but which are unlikely to be used by |
53 | SCMs layered over git. | |

6c84e2e0 | 420 | Identifier Terminology |
2cf565c5 DG |
421 | ---------------------- |
422 | <object>:: | |
6c84e2e0 | 423 | Indicates the sha1 identifier for any type of object |
2cf565c5 DG |
424 | |
425 | <blob>:: | |
426 | Indicates a blob object sha1 identifier | |
427 | ||
428 | <tree>:: | |
429 | Indicates a tree object sha1 identifier | |
430 | ||
431 | <commit>:: | |
432 | Indicates a commit object sha1 identifier | |
433 | ||
434 | <tree-ish>:: | |
6c84e2e0 DG |
435 | Indicates a tree, commit or tag object sha1 identifier. A |
436 | command that takes a <tree-ish> argument ultimately wants to | |
437 | operate on a <tree> object but automatically dereferences | |
438 | <commit> and <tag> objects that point at a <tree>. | |
2cf565c5 DG |
439 | |
440 | <type>:: | |
441 | Indicates that an object type is required. | |
442 | Currently one of: blob/tree/commit/tag | |
443 | ||
444 | <file>:: | |
445 | Indicates a filename - always relative to the root of | |
446 | the tree structure GIT_INDEX_FILE describes. | |

448 | Symbolic Identifiers |
449 | -------------------- | |
90933efb | 450 | Any git command accepting any <object> can also use the following |
6c84e2e0 | 451 | symbolic notation: |
c1bdacf9 DG |
452 | |
453 | HEAD:: | |
6c84e2e0 DG |
454 | indicates the head of the repository (ie the contents of |
455 | `$GIT_DIR/HEAD`) | |
c1bdacf9 DG |
456 | <tag>:: |
457 | a valid tag 'name'+ | |
458 | (ie the contents of `$GIT_DIR/refs/tags/<tag>`) | |
459 | <head>:: | |
460 | a valid head 'name'+ | |
461 | (ie the contents of `$GIT_DIR/refs/heads/<head>`) | |
462 | <snap>:: | |
463 | a valid snapshot 'name'+ | |
464 | (ie the contents of `$GIT_DIR/refs/snap/<snap>`) | |

481 | Environment Variables | |
482 | --------------------- | |
483 | Various git commands use the following environment variables: | |
484 | ||
c1bdacf9 DG |
485 | The git Repository |
486 | ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ | |
487 | These environment variables apply to 'all' core git commands. Nb: it | |
488 | is worth noting that they may be used/overridden by SCMS sitting above | |
489 | git so take care if using Cogito etc | |
490 | ||
491 | 'GIT_INDEX_FILE':: | |
492 | This environment allows the specification of an alternate | |
493 | cache/index file. If not specified, the default of | |
494 | `$GIT_DIR/index` is used. | |
495 | ||
496 | 'GIT_OBJECT_DIRECTORY':: | |
497 | If the object storage directory is specified via this | |
498 | environment variable then the sha1 directories are created | |
499 | underneath - otherwise the default `$GIT_DIR/objects` | |
500 | directory is used. | |
501 | ||
502 | 'GIT_ALTERNATE_OBJECT_DIRECTORIES':: | |
503 | Due to the immutable nature of git objects, old objects can be | |
504 | archived into shared, read-only directories. This variable | |
90933efb | 505 | specifies a ":" separated list of git object directories which |
c1bdacf9 DG |
506 | can be used to search for git objects. New objects will not be |
507 | written to these directories. | |
508 | ||
509 | 'GIT_DIR':: | |
510 | If the 'GIT_DIR' environment variable is set then it specifies | |
511 | a path to use instead of `./.git` for the base of the | |
512 | repository. | |
