| 4 | NAME | |
| 5 | ---- | |
| 5f3aa197 | 6 | git-write-tree - Creates a tree object from the current index |
| 2cf565c5 DG |

| 9 | SYNOPSIS | |
| 10 | -------- | |
| 6bd20358 | 11 | 'git-write-tree' [--missing-ok] [--prefix=<prefix>/] |
| 2cf565c5 DG |

| 13 | DESCRIPTION | |
| 14 | ----------- | |
| 5f3aa197 | 15 | Creates a tree object using the current index. |
| 2cf565c5 | 16 | |
| 61f693bd | 17 | The index must be in a fully merged state. |
| 2cf565c5 | 18 | |
| 61f693bd | 19 | Conceptually, `git-write-tree` sync()s the current index contents |
| 2cf565c5 DG |
20 | into a set of tree files. |
| 21 | In order to have that match what is actually in your directory right | |
| 61f693bd JL |
22 | now, you need to have done a `git-update-index` phase before you did the |
| 23 | `git-write-tree`. | |

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

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