I am not opening any file in my program. The file is being redirected to stdin by the OS.
bin < inputfile
I am using gets() to read, which not to mention read from the stdin. After I am finished reading the file, I want gets() to continue reading from console input.
Are u implying that file redirection causes a fd attached to stdin. If so when I reopen the fd, what argument should I give it, to attach it to console input.
I am going to try it next anyway and see what happens.
Thanx
Nauman

git-hash-object
GIT-HASH-OBJECT(1) Git Manual GIT-HASH-OBJECT(1)
NAME
git-hash-object - Compute object ID and optionally creates a blob from a file
SYNOPSIS
git hash-object [-t <type>] [-w] [--path=<file>|--no-filters] [--stdin] [--] <file>...
git hash-object [-t <type>] [-w] --stdin-paths [--no-filters] < <list-of-paths>
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.
--stdin-paths
Read file names from stdin instead of from the command-line.
--path
Hash object as it were located at the given path. The location of file does not directly influence on the hash value, but path is used
to determine what git filters should be applied to the object before it can be placed to the object database, and, as result of
applying filters, the actual blob put into the object database may differ from the given file. This option is mainly useful for hashing
temporary files located outside of the working directory or files read from stdin.
--no-filters
Hash the contents as is, ignoring any input filter that would have been chosen by the attributes mechanism, including the end-of-line
conversion. If the file is read from standard input then this is always implied, unless the --path option is given.
