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.
