6 git-commit-graph - Write and verify Git commit-graph files
12 'git commit-graph read' [--object-dir <dir>]
13 'git commit-graph verify' [--object-dir <dir>]
14 'git commit-graph write' <options> [--object-dir <dir>]
20 Manage the serialized commit-graph file.
26 Use given directory for the location of packfiles and commit-graph
27 file. This parameter exists to specify the location of an alternate
28 that only has the objects directory, not a full `.git` directory. The
29 commit-graph file is expected to be at `<dir>/info/commit-graph` and
30 the packfiles are expected to be in `<dir>/pack`.
37 Write a commit-graph file based on the commits found in packfiles.
39 With the `--stdin-packs` option, generate the new commit graph by
40 walking objects only in the specified pack-indexes. (Cannot be combined
41 with `--stdin-commits` or `--reachable`.)
43 With the `--stdin-commits` option, generate the new commit graph by
44 walking commits starting at the commits specified in stdin as a list
45 of OIDs in hex, one OID per line. (Cannot be combined with
46 `--stdin-packs` or `--reachable`.)
48 With the `--reachable` option, generate the new commit graph by walking
49 commits starting at all refs. (Cannot be combined with `--stdin-commits`
52 With the `--append` option, include all commits that are present in the
53 existing commit-graph file.
57 Read the commit-graph file and output basic details about it.
58 Used for debugging purposes.
62 Read the commit-graph file and verify its contents against the object
63 database. Used to check for corrupted data.
69 * Write a commit-graph file for the packed commits in your local `.git`
72 ------------------------------------------------
73 $ git commit-graph write
74 ------------------------------------------------
76 * Write a commit-graph file, extending the current commit-graph file
77 using commits in `<pack-index>`.
79 ------------------------------------------------
80 $ echo <pack-index> | git commit-graph write --stdin-packs
81 ------------------------------------------------
83 * Write a commit-graph file containing all reachable commits.
85 ------------------------------------------------
86 $ git show-ref -s | git commit-graph write --stdin-commits
87 ------------------------------------------------
89 * Write a commit-graph file containing all commits in the current
90 commit-graph file along with those reachable from `HEAD`.
92 ------------------------------------------------
93 $ git rev-parse HEAD | git commit-graph write --stdin-commits --append
94 ------------------------------------------------
96 * Read basic information from the commit-graph file.
98 ------------------------------------------------
99 $ git commit-graph read
