| git-get-tar-commit-id(1) | |
| ======================== | |
| NAME | |
| ---- | |
| git-get-tar-commit-id - Extract commit ID from an archive created using git-archive | |
| SYNOPSIS | |
| -------- | |
| [verse] | |
| 'git get-tar-commit-id' | |
| DESCRIPTION | |
| ----------- | |
| Read a tar archive created by 'git archive' from the standard input | |
| and extract the commit ID stored in it. It reads only the first | |
| 1024 bytes of input, thus its runtime is not influenced by the size | |
| of the tar archive very much. | |
| If no commit ID is found, 'git get-tar-commit-id' quietly exists with a | |
| return code of 1. This can happen if the archive had not been created | |
| using 'git archive' or if the first parameter of 'git archive' had been | |
| a tree ID instead of a commit ID or tag. | |
