NAME
|
|
----
|
|
git-cat-file - Provide content or type and size information for repository objects
|
|
|
|
|
|
SYNOPSIS
|
|
--------
|
|
[verse]
|
|
'git cat-file' (-t | -s | -e | -p | <type> | --textconv ) <object>
|
|
'git cat-file' (--batch | --batch-check) < <list-of-objects>
|
|
|
|
DESCRIPTION
|
|
-----------
|
|
In its first form, the command provides the content or the type of an object in
|
|
the repository. The type is required unless '-t' or '-p' is used to find the
|
|
object type, or '-s' is used to find the object size, or '--textconv' is used
|
|
(which implies type "blob").
|
|
|
|
In the second form, a list of objects (separated by linefeeds) is provided on
|
|
stdin, and the SHA-1, type, and size of each object is printed on stdout.
|
|
|
|
OPTIONS
|
|
-------
|
|
<object>::
|
|
The name of the object to show.
|
|
For a more complete list of ways to spell object names, see
|
|
the "SPECIFYING REVISIONS" section in linkgit:gitrevisions[7].
|
|
|
|
-t::
|
|
Instead of the content, show the object type identified by
|
|
<object>.
|
|
|
|
-s::
|
|
Instead of the content, show the object size identified by
|
|
<object>.
|
|
|
|
-e::
|
|
Suppress all output; instead exit with zero status if <object>
|
|
exists and is a valid object.
|
|
|
|
-p::
|
|
Pretty-print the contents of <object> based on its type.
|
|
|
|
<type>::
|
|
Typically this matches the real type of <object> but asking
|
|
for a type that can trivially be dereferenced from the given
|
|
<object> is also permitted. An example is to ask for a
|
|
"tree" with <object> being a commit object that contains it,
|
|
or to ask for a "blob" with <object> being a tag object that
|
|
points at it.
|
|
|
|
--textconv::
|
|
Show the content as transformed by a textconv filter. In this case,
|
|
<object> has be of the form <tree-ish>:<path>, or :<path> in order
|
|
to apply the filter to the content recorded in the index at <path>.
|
|
|
|
--batch::
|
|
--batch=<format>::
|
|
Print object information and contents for each object provided
|
|
on stdin. May not be combined with any other options or arguments.
|
|
See the section `BATCH OUTPUT` below for details.
|
|
|
|
--batch-check::
|
|
--batch-check=<format>::
|
|
Print object information for each object provided on stdin. May
|
|
not be combined with any other options or arguments. See the
|
|
section `BATCH OUTPUT` below for details.
|
|
|
|
OUTPUT
|
|
------
|
|
If '-t' is specified, one of the <type>.
|
|
|
|
If '-s' is specified, the size of the <object> in bytes.
|
|
|
|
If '-e' is specified, no output.
|
|
|
|
If '-p' is specified, the contents of <object> are pretty-printed.
|
|
|
|
If <type> is specified, the raw (though uncompressed) contents of the <object>
|
|
will be returned.
|
|
|
|
BATCH OUTPUT
|
|
------------
|
|
|
|
If `--batch` or `--batch-check` is given, `cat-file` will read objects
|
|
from stdin, one per line, and print information about them. By default,
|
|
the whole line is considered as an object, as if it were fed to
|
|
linkgit:git-rev-parse[1].
|
|
|
|
You can specify the information shown for each object by using a custom
|
|
`<format>`. The `<format>` is copied literally to stdout for each
|
|
object, with placeholders of the form `%(atom)` expanded, followed by a
|
|
newline. The available atoms are:
|
|
|
|
`objectname`::
|
|
The 40-hex object name of the object.
|
|
|
|
`objecttype`::
|
|
The type of of the object (the same as `cat-file -t` reports).
|
|
|
|
`objectsize`::
|
|
The size, in bytes, of the object (the same as `cat-file -s`
|
|
reports).
|
|
|
|
`objectsize:disk`::
|
|
The size, in bytes, that the object takes up on disk. See the
|
|
note about on-disk sizes in the `CAVEATS` section below.
|
|
|
|
`deltabase`::
|
|
If the object is stored as a delta on-disk, this expands to the
|
|
40-hex sha1 of the delta base object. Otherwise, expands to the
|
|
null sha1 (40 zeroes). See `CAVEATS` below.
|
|
|
|
`rest`::
|
|
If this atom is used in the output string, input lines are split
|
|
at the first whitespace boundary. All characters before that
|
|
whitespace are considered to be the object name; characters
|
|
after that first run of whitespace (i.e., the "rest" of the
|
|
line) are output in place of the `%(rest)` atom.
|
|
|
|
If no format is specified, the default format is `%(objectname)
|
|
%(objecttype) %(objectsize)`.
|
|
|
|
If `--batch` is specified, the object information is followed by the
|
|
object contents (consisting of `%(objectsize)` bytes), followed by a
|
|
newline.
|
|
|
|
For example, `--batch` without a custom format would produce:
|
|
|
|
------------
|
|
<sha1> SP <type> SP <size> LF
|
|
<contents> LF
|
|
------------
|
|
|
|
Whereas `--batch-check='%(objectname) %(objecttype)'` would produce:
|
|
|
|
------------
|
|
<sha1> SP <type> LF
|
|
------------
|
|
|
|
If a name is specified on stdin that cannot be resolved to an object in
|
|
the repository, then `cat-file` will ignore any custom format and print:
|
|
|
|
------------
|
|
<object> SP missing LF
|
|
------------
|
|
|
|
|
|
CAVEATS
|
|
-------
|
|
|
|
Note that the sizes of objects on disk are reported accurately, but care
|
|
should be taken in drawing conclusions about which refs or objects are
|
|
responsible for disk usage. The size of a packed non-delta object may be
|
|
much larger than the size of objects which delta against it, but the
|
|
choice of which object is the base and which is the delta is arbitrary
|
|
and is subject to change during a repack.
|
|
|
|
Note also that multiple copies of an object may be present in the object
|
|
database; in this case, it is undefined which copy's size or delta base
|
|
will be reported.
