NAME

6       git-hash-object - Compute object ID and optionally create an object
7       from a file
8

SYNOPSIS

10       git hash-object [-t <type>] [-w] [--path=<file> | --no-filters]
11                       [--stdin [--literally]] [--] <file>...
12       git hash-object [-t <type>] [-w] --stdin-paths [--no-filters]
13

DESCRIPTION

15       Computes the object ID value for an object with specified type with the
16       contents of the named file (which can be outside of the work tree), and
17       optionally writes the resulting object into the object database.
18       Reports its object ID to its standard output. When <type> is not
19       specified, it defaults to "blob".
20

OPTIONS

22       -t <type>
23           Specify the type of object to be created (default: "blob").
24           Possible values are commit, tree, blob, and tag.
25
26       -w
27           Actually write the object into the object database.
28
29       --stdin
30           Read the object from standard input instead of from a file.
31
32       --stdin-paths
33           Read file names from the standard input, one per line, instead of
34           from the command-line.
35
36       --path
37           Hash object as if it were located at the given path. The location
38           of the file does not directly influence the hash value, but the
39           path is used to determine which Git filters should be applied to
40           the object before it can be placed in the object database. As a
41           result of applying filters, the actual blob put into the object
42           database may differ from the given file. This option is mainly
43           useful for hashing temporary files located outside of the working
44           directory or files read from stdin.
45
46       --no-filters
47           Hash the contents as is, ignoring any input filter that would have
48           been chosen by the attributes mechanism, including the end-of-line
49           conversion. If the file is read from standard input then this is
50           always implied, unless the --path option is given.
51
52       --literally
53           Allow --stdin to hash any garbage into a loose object which might
54           not otherwise pass standard object parsing or git-fsck checks.
55           Useful for stress-testing Git itself or reproducing characteristics
56           of corrupt or bogus objects encountered in the wild.
