git-rev-parse(1)
================
NAME
----
git-rev-parse - Pick out and massage parameters.
SYNOPSIS
--------
'git-rev-parse' [ --option ] <args>...
DESCRIPTION
-----------
Many git Porcelainish commands take mixture of flags
(i.e. parameters that begin with a dash '-') and parameters
meant for underlying `git-rev-list` command they use internally
and flags and parameters for other commands they use as the
downstream of `git-rev-list`. This command is used to
distinguish between them.
OPTIONS
-------
--revs-only::
Do not output flags and parameters not meant for
`git-rev-list` command.
--no-revs::
Do not output flags and parameters meant for
`git-rev-list` command.
--flags::
Do not output non-flag parameters.
--no-flags::
Do not output flag parameters.
--default <arg>::
If there is no parameter given by the user, use `<arg>`
instead.
--verify::
The parameter given must be usable as a single, valid
object name. Otherwise barf and abort.
--sq::
Usually the output is made one line per flag and
parameter. This option makes output a single line,
properly quoted for consumption by shell. Useful when
you expect your parameter to contain whitespaces and
newlines (e.g. when using pickaxe `-S` with
`git-diff-\*`).
--not::
When showing object names, prefix them with '^' and
strip '^' prefix from the object names that already have
one.
--symbolic::
Usually the object names are output in SHA1 form (with
possible '^' prefix); this option makes them output in a
form as close to the original input as possible.
--all::
Show all refs found in `$GIT_DIR/refs`.
--show-prefix::
When the command is invoked from a directory show the
path of the current directory relative to the top-level
directory.
<args>...::
Flags and parameters to be parsed.
