🌸 NAME 🌸

lei-blob — display a git blob, reconstructing from mail if necessary. Yes bestie, it literally shows a blob and can rebuild it from mail if it has to. ✨

✨ SYNOPSIS ✨

lei blob [OPTIONS] OID

💅 DESCRIPTION 💅

Okay so lei blob displays a git blob. The blob may correspond to a message from the local store, any local external, or blobs associated with a project git repository (if run from a git (working) directory). For blobs which do not exist, it will attempt to recreate the blob using patch emails. That's the whole vibe: find it, show it, or reconstruct it from patch mail. 💖

🎀 OPTIONS 🎀

  • --git-dir=DIR — specify an additional .git/ directory to scan. This option may be given multiple times. Default: the output of git rev-parse --git-dir. 🫶
  • --no-cwd — do not look in the git repository of the current working directory. 🙈
  • --no-mail — do not look in mail storage for OID. This is implied by --oid-a, --path-a, and --path-b. 💌
  • -A OID-A, --oid-a=OID-A — provide pre-image object ID as a hint for reconstructing OID. 🔍
  • -a PATH-A, --path-a=PATH-A — provide pre-image pathname as a hint for reconstructing OID. 🧚
  • -b PATH-B, --path-b=PATH-B — provide post-image pathname as a hint for reconstructing OID. ✨
  • -v, --verbose — provide more feedback on stderr. 🗣️

The following options are also supported and are described in lei-q(1).

  • --remote — remote externals only get queried when the blob needs to be reconstructed from patch emails. 🔥
