git-repack starts at your heads and works its way down. You can either:
- make a dummy commit for a tree with all of your blobs:
$ while read sha1; do
echo -e "100644 blob $sha1\t$sha1"
done <list_of_sha1s | git-update-index --index-info
tree=$(git-write-tree)
commit=$(git-commit-tree $tree)
git-update-ref HEAD $commit
- call git-pack-objects directly with a list of objects
git-pack-objects .git/objects/pack/pack <list_of_sha1s
Obviously the latter is simpler, but the former will also make
git-fsck-objects happy. Note that they're both untested, so there might
be typos.
