NAME
git-hash-object - Compute object ID and optionally creates a blob from a fileSYNOPSIS
git hash-object [-t <type>] [-w] [--path=<file> | --no-filters] [--stdin [--literally]] [--] <file>... git hash-object [-t <type>] [-w] --stdin-paths [--no-filters]
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. 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.
--stdin
Read the object from standard input instead of
from a file.
--stdin-paths
Read file names from the standard input, one
per line, instead of from the command-line.
--path
Hash object as it were located at the given
path. The location of file does not directly influence on the hash value, but
path is used to determine what Git filters should be applied to the object
before it can be placed to the object database, and, as result of applying
filters, the actual blob put into the object database may differ from the
given file. This option is mainly useful for hashing temporary files located
outside of the working directory or files read from stdin.
--no-filters
Hash the contents as is, ignoring any input
filter that would have been chosen by the attributes mechanism, including the
end-of-line conversion. If the file is read from standard input then this is
always implied, unless the --path option is given.
--literally
Allow --stdin to hash any garbage into
a loose object which might not otherwise pass standard object parsing or
git-fsck checks. Useful for stress-testing Git itself or reproducing
characteristics of corrupt or bogus objects encountered in the wild.
