GIT-MKTREE(1)                  Git Manual                  GIT-MKTREE(1)

NAME

       git-mktree - Build a tree-object from ls-tree formatted text

SYNOPSIS

       git mktree [-z] [--missing] [--batch]

DESCRIPTION

       Reads standard input in non-recursive ls-tree output format, and
       creates a tree object. The order of the tree entries is
       normalized by mktree so pre-sorting the input is not required.
       The object name of the tree object built is written to the
       standard output.

OPTIONS

       -z
           Read the NUL-terminated ls-tree -z output instead.

       --missing
           Allow missing objects. The default behaviour (without this
           option) is to verify that each tree entry’s hash identifies
           an existing object. This option has no effect on the
           treatment of gitlink entries (aka "submodules") which are
           always allowed to be missing.

       --batch
           Allow building of more than one tree object before exiting.
           Each tree is separated by a single blank line. The final
           newline is optional. Note - if the -z option is used, lines
           are terminated with NUL.
