[PATCH 4/3] show: --ignore-missing

[Date Prev][Date Next][Thread Prev][Thread Next][Date Index][Thread Index]

 



Instead of barfing, simply ignore bad object names seen in the
input. This is useful when reading from "git notes list" output
that may refer to objects that have already been garbage collected.

 * This would let me do something like

	git notes list |
        sed -e 's/. *//' | # strip note-blob
	git show --format='%ci %H ...' --ignore-missing --stdin |
        ... perhaps sort by commit date, filter, etc... |
        git notes remove --stdin --ignore-missing

   Perhaps "git notes list --target-only" can be added to remove the
   need for the second "sed" in the pipeline.
