NAME

|
|
git-unpack-objects - Unpack objects from a packed archive
|
|
|
|
|
|
SYNOPSIS
|
|
--------
|
|
'git-unpack-objects' [-n] [-q] <pack-file
|
|
|
|
|
|
DESCRIPTION
|
|
-----------
|
|
Read a packed archive (.pack) from the standard input, expanding
|
|
the objects contained within and writing them into the repository in
|
|
"loose" (one object per file) format.
|
|
|
|
Objects that already exist in the repository will *not* be unpacked
|
|
from the pack-file. Therefore, nothing will be unpacked if you use
|
|
this command on a pack-file that exists within the target repository.
|
|
|
|
Please see the `git-repack` documentation for options to generate
|
|
new packs and replace existing ones.
|
|
|
|
OPTIONS
|
|
-------
|
|
-n::
|
|
Only list the objects that would be unpacked, don't actually unpack
|
|
them.
|
|
|
|
-q::
|
|
The command usually shows percentage progress. This
|
|
flag suppresses it.
