13 Creates a tree object using the current index. The name of the new tree
14 object is printed to standard output.
15
16 The index must be in a fully merged state.
17
18 Conceptually, git write-tree sync()s the current index contents into a
19 set of tree files. In order to have that match what is actually in your
20 directory right now, you need to have done a git update-index phase
21 before you did the git write-tree.
22
24 --missing-ok
25 Normally git write-tree ensures that the objects referenced by the
26 directory exist in the object database. This option disables this
27 check.
28
29 --prefix=<prefix>/
30 Writes a tree object that represents a subdirectory <prefix>. This
31 can be used to write the tree object for a subproject that is in
32 the named subdirectory.
