Subject: [PATCH v2 3/3] show-ref: add --symbolic-name option
Date: Mon, 08 Apr 2024 17:38:13 +0000 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <a9e6644327a04f1d309eca812ace9c4159781353.1712597893.git.gitgitgadget@gmail.com> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <pull.1684.v2.git.git.1712597893.gitgitgadget@gmail.com>
From: John Cai <johncai86@gmail.com>
For reftable development, it would be handy to have a tool to provide
the direct value of any ref whether it be a symbolic ref or not.
Currently there is git-symbolic-ref, which only works for symbolic refs,
and git-rev-parse, which will resolve the ref. Let's teach show-ref a
--symbolic-name option that will cause git-show-ref(1) to print out the
value symbolic references points to.
