The "bind" commit can express an aggregation of multiple projects into a single commit. In such an organization, there would be one project, root of whose tree object is at the same level of the root of the aggregated projects, and other projects have their toplevel in separate subdirectories. Let's call that root level project the "primary project", and call other ones just "subprojects". You would first read-tree the primary project, and then graft the subprojects under their appropriate location using read-tree --prefix=<subdir>/ repeatedly. To write out a tree object from such an index for a subproject, write-tree --prefix=<subdir>/ is used. Signed-off-by: Junio C Hamano <junkio@cox.net>

NAME
|
|
----
|
|
git-write-tree - Creates a tree object from the current index
|
|
|
|
|
|
SYNOPSIS
|
|
--------
|
|
'git-write-tree' [--missing-ok] [--prefix=<prefix>/]
|
|
|
|
DESCRIPTION
|
|
-----------
|
|
Creates a tree object using the current index.
|
|
|
|
The index must be in a fully merged state.
|
|
|
|
Conceptually, `git-write-tree` sync()s the current index contents
|
|
into a set of tree files.
|
|
In order to have that match what is actually in your directory right
|
|
now, you need to have done a `git-update-index` phase before you did the
|
|
`git-write-tree`.
|
|
|
|
|
|
OPTIONS
|
|
-------
|
|
--missing-ok::
|
|
Normally `git-write-tree` ensures that the objects referenced by the
|
|
directory exist in the object database. This option disables this
|
|
check.
|
|
|
|
--prefix=<prefix>/::
|
|
Writes a tree object that represents a subdirectory
|
|
`<prefix>`. This can be used to write the tree object
|
|
for a subproject that is in the named subdirectory.
