In the first case the current time is used as +modification time of each file in the archive. In the latter case the +commit time as recorded in the referenced commit object is used instead. +Additionally the commit ID is stored in a global extended pax header. +It can be extracted using git-get-tar-commit-id. + + +Author +------ +Written by Rene Scharfe. + +Documentation +-------------- +Documentation by David Greaves, Junio C Hamano and the git-list <git@vger.kernel.org>. + +GIT +--- +Part of the gitlink:git[7] suite + |
