The file parameter is better spelled just "file", not "any file on the filesystem". We stress that in the description text later anyway. Signed-off-by: Junio C Hamano <junkio@cox.net>

git-hash-object(1)
|
|
==================
|
|
|
|
NAME
|
|
----
|
|
git-hash-object - Computes object ID and optionally creates a blob from a file.
|
|
|
|
|
|
SYNOPSIS
|
|
--------
|
|
'git-hash-object' [-t <type>] [-w] <file>
|
|
|
|
DESCRIPTION
|
|
-----------
|
|
Computes the object ID value for an object with specified type
|
|
with the contents of the named file (which can be outside of the
|
|
work tree), and optionally writes the resulting object into the
|
|
object database. Reports its object ID to its standard output.
|
|
This is used by "git-cvsimport" to update the index
|
|
without modifying files in the work tree. When <type> is not
|
|
specified, it defaults to "blob".
|
|
|
|
OPTIONS
|
|
-------
|
|
|
|
-t <type>::
|
|
Specify the type (default: "blob").
|
|
|
|
-w::
|
|
Actually write the object into the object database.
