This patch makes the first half of write_sha1_file() and index_fd() externally visible, to allow callers to compute the object ID without actually storing it in the object database. [JC demangled the whitespaces himself because he liked the patch so much, and reworked the interface to index_fd() slightly, taking suggestion from Linus and of his own.] Signed-off-by: Bryan Larsen <bryan.larsen@gmail.com> Signed-off-by: Junio C Hamano <junkio@cox.net> Signed-off-by: Linus Torvalds <torvalds@osdl.org>

NAME
|
|
----
|
|
git-hash-object - Computes object ID and optionally creates a blob from a file.
|
|
|
|
|
|
SYNOPSIS
|
|
--------
|
|
'git-hash-object' [-t <type>] [-w] <any-file-on-the-filesystem>
|
|
|
|
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-script" to update the cache
|
|
without modifying files in the work tree. When <type> is not
|
|
specified, it defaults to "blob".
