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 normalised 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 sha1 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 as single blank line. The final new-line is
	   optional. Note - if the -z option is used, lines are terminated with NUL.

NAME

       git-write-tree - Create a tree object from the current index

SYNOPSIS

       git write-tree [--missing-ok] [--prefix=<prefix>/]

DESCRIPTION

       Creates a tree object using the current index. The name of the new tree object is printed to standard output.

       The index must be in a fully merged state.

       Conceptually, git write-tree sync()s the current index contents into a set of tree files. In order to have that match what is actually in
       your directory right now, you need to have done a git update-index phase before you did the git write-tree.

OPTIONS

       --missing-ok
	   Normally git write-tree ensures that the objects referenced by the directory exist in the object database. This option disables this
	   check.

       --prefix=<prefix>/
	   Writes a tree object that represents a subdirectory <prefix>. This can be used to write the tree object for a subproject that is in the
	   named subdirectory.
