git-cat-file(1)
===============
NAME
----
git-cat-file - Provide content or type information for repository objects
SYNOPSIS
--------
'git-cat-file' [-t | -s | -e | <type>] <object>
DESCRIPTION
-----------
Provides content or type of objects in the repository. The type
is required unless '-t' is used to find the object type,
or '-s' is used to find the object size.
OPTIONS
-------
<object>::
The sha1 identifier of the object.
-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.
<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.
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.
Otherwise the raw (though uncompressed) contents of the <object> will
be returned.
