GIT-SHOW-INDEX(1) Git Manual GIT-SHOW-INDEX(1)
NAME
git-show-index - Show packed archive index
SYNOPSIS
git show-index
DESCRIPTION
Read the .idx file for a Git packfile (created with git-pack-objects(1)
or git-index-pack(1)) from the standard input, and dump its contents.
The output consists of one object per line, with each line containing
two or three space-separated columns:
o the first column is the offset in bytes of the object within the
corresponding packfile
o the second column is the object id of the object
o if the index version is 2 or higher, the third column contains the
CRC32 of the object data
The objects are output in the order in which they are found in the
index file, which should be (in a correctly constructed file) sorted by
object id.
Note that you can get more information on a packfile by calling git-
verify-pack(1). However, as this command considers only the index file
itself, it's both faster and more flexible.
