 --stdin::

+--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 crlf
+	conversion. If the file is read from standard input then this
+	is always implied, unless the --path option is given.
