| NAME | |
| ---- | |
| git-show - Show various types of objects | |
| SYNOPSIS | |
| -------- | |
| 'git show' [options] <object>... | |
| DESCRIPTION | |
| ----------- | |
| Shows one or more objects (blobs, trees, tags and commits). | |
| For commits it shows the log message and textual diff. It also | |
| presents the merge commit in a special format as produced by | |
| 'git-diff-tree --cc'. | |
| For tags, it shows the tag message and the referenced objects. | |
| For trees, it shows the names (equivalent to 'git-ls-tree' | |
| with \--name-only). | |
| For plain blobs, it shows the plain contents. | |
| The command takes options applicable to the 'git-diff-tree' command to | |
| control how the changes the commit introduces are shown. | |
| This manual page describes only the most frequently used options. | |
| OPTIONS | |
| ------- | |
| <object>...:: | |
| The names of objects to show. | |
| For a more complete list of ways to spell object names, see | |
| "SPECIFYING REVISIONS" section in linkgit:git-rev-parse[1]. | |
