If you have the same revision (commit IDs), you have the same tree (at the same time, by the same committer, etc). If you have a different revision (commit), you may or may not have the same tree. You can then check the tree id, which will either be the same (you have the same tree) or differ (you don't). Thus, in the converse, if you have the same tree, you _will_ have the same tree id. You may or may not have the same commit id. -Peff - To unsubscribe from this list: send the line "unsubscribe git" in the body of a message to majordomo@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx More majordomo info at http://vger.kernel.org/majordomo-info.html
