NAME
----
git-hash-object - Compute object ID and optionally creates a blob from a file


SYNOPSIS
--------
'git-hash-object' [-t <type>] [-w] [--stdin] [--] <file>...

DESCRIPTION
-----------
Computes the object ID value for an object with specified type
with the contents of the named file (which can be outside of the
work tree), and optionally writes the resulting object into the
object database.  Reports its object ID to its standard output.
This is used by "git-cvsimport" to update the index
without modifying files in the work tree.  When <type> is not
specified, it defaults to "blob".

OPTIONS
-------

-t <type>::
	Specify the type (default: "blob").

-w::
	Actually write the object into the object database.

--stdin::
	Read the object from standard input instead of from a file.
