Johannes Schindelin 2c6e477195 [PATCH] Assorted documentation patches
[jc: Johannes spent time and effort to see how consistent our
use of terminilogy is, and as a byproduct made these corrections
not related to the terminology unification.  I really appreciate
it.]

git-hash-object(1)
==================
v0.1, May 2005
NAME
----
git-hash-object - Computes object ID and optionally creates a blob from a file.
SYNOPSIS
--------
'git-hash-object' [-t <type>] [-w] <any-file-on-the-filesystem>
DESCRIPTION
-----------
Computes the object ID value for an object with specified type
with the contents of the named file (which can be outside of the
work tree), and optionally writes the resulting object into the
object database. Reports its object ID to its standard output.
This is used by "git-cvsimport-script" to update the cache
without modifying files in the work tree. When <type> is not
specified, it defaults to "blob".
OPTIONS
-------
-t <type>::
Specify the type (default: "blob").
-w::
Actually write the object into the object database.
