| git-get-tar-commit-id(1) | 
 | ======================== | 
 |  | 
 | NAME | 
 | ---- | 
 | git-get-tar-commit-id - Extract commit ID from an archive created using git-archive | 
 |  | 
 |  | 
 | SYNOPSIS | 
 | -------- | 
 | 'git get-tar-commit-id' < <tarfile> | 
 |  | 
 |  | 
 | DESCRIPTION | 
 | ----------- | 
 | Acts as a filter, extracting the commit ID stored in archives created by | 
 | 'git-archive'.  It reads only the first 1024 bytes of input, thus its | 
 | runtime is not influenced by the size of <tarfile> 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 <tarfile> 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. |
