| <h2>NAME</h2> | |
| <div class="sectionbody"> | |
| <p>git-replace - | |
| Create, list, delete refs to replace objects | |
| </p> | |
| </div> | |
| </div> | |
| <h2 id="_synopsis">SYNOPSIS</h2> | |
| <div class="sectionbody"> | |
| <div class="verseblock"> | |
| <div class="verseblock-content"><em>git replace</em> [-f] <object> <replacement> | |
| <em>git replace</em> -d <object>… | |
| <em>git replace</em> -l [<pattern>]</div> | |
| <div class="verseblock-attribution"> | |
| </div></div> | |
| </div> | |
| <h2 id="_description">DESCRIPTION</h2> | |
| <div class="sectionbody"> | |
| <div class="paragraph"><p>Adds a <em>replace</em> reference in <tt>.git/refs/replace/</tt></p></div> | |
| <div class="paragraph"><p>The name of the <em>replace</em> reference is the SHA1 of the object that is | |
| replaced. The content of the <em>replace</em> reference is the SHA1 of the | |
| replacement object.</p></div> | |
| <div class="paragraph"><p>Unless <tt>-f</tt> is given, the <em>replace</em> reference must not yet exist in | |
| <tt>.git/refs/replace/</tt> directory.</p></div> | |
| <div class="paragraph"><p>Replacement references will be used by default by all git commands | |
| except those doing reachability traversal (prune, pack transfer and | |
| fsck).</p></div> | |
| <div class="paragraph"><p>It is possible to disable use of replacement references for any | |
| command using the <tt>--no-replace-objects</tt> option just after <em>git</em>.</p></div> | |
| <div class="paragraph"><p>For example if commit <em>foo</em> has been replaced by commit <em>bar</em>:</p></div> | |
| <div class="listingblock"> | |
| <div class="content"> | |
| <pre><tt>$ git --no-replace-objects cat-file commit foo</tt></pre> | |
| </div></div> | |
| <div class="paragraph"><p>shows information about commit <em>foo</em>, while:</p></div> | |
| <div class="listingblock"> | |
| <div class="content"> | |
| <pre><tt>$ git cat-file commit foo</tt></pre> | |
| </div></div> | |
| <div class="paragraph"><p>shows information about commit <em>bar</em>.</p></div> | |
| <div class="paragraph"><p>The <em>GIT_NO_REPLACE_OBJECTS</em> environment variable can be set to | |
| achieve the same effect as the <tt>--no-replace-objects</tt> option.</p></div> | |
| </div> | |
| <h2 id="_options">OPTIONS</h2> | |
| <div class="sectionbody"> | |
| <div class="dlist"><dl> | |
| <dt class="hdlist1"> | |
| -f | |
| </dt> | |
| <dd> | |
| <p> | |
| If an existing replace ref for the same object exists, it will | |
| be overwritten (instead of failing). | |
| </p> | |
| </dd> | |
| <dt class="hdlist1"> | |
| -d | |
| </dt> | |
| <dd> | |
| <p> | |
| Delete existing replace refs for the given objects. | |
| </p> | |
| </dd> | |
| <dt class="hdlist1"> | |
| -l <pattern> | |
| </dt> | |
| <dd> | |
| <p> | |
| List replace refs for objects that match the given pattern (or | |
| all if no pattern is given). | |
| Typing "git replace" without arguments, also lists all replace | |
| refs. | |
| </p> | |
| </dd> | |
| </dl></div> | |
| </div> | |
| <h2 id="_bugs">BUGS</h2> | |
| <div class="sectionbody"> | |
| <div class="paragraph"><p>Comparing blobs or trees that have been replaced with those that | |
| replace them will not work properly. And using <tt>git reset --hard</tt> to | |
| go back to a replaced commit will move the branch to the replacement | |
| commit instead of the replaced commit.</p></div> | |
| <div class="paragraph"><p>There may be other problems when using <em>git rev-list</em> related to | |
| pending objects. And of course things may break if an object of one | |
| type is replaced by an object of another type (for example a blob | |
| replaced by a commit).</p></div> | |
