In the first case the current time is used as 22modification time of each file in the archive. In the latter case the 23commit time as recorded in the referenced commit object is used instead. 24Additionally the commit ID is stored in a global extended pax header. 25It can be extracted using git-get-tar-commit-id. 26 27 28Author 29------ 30Written by Rene Scharfe. 31 32Documentation 33-------------- 34Documentation by David Greaves, Junio C Hamano and the git-list <git@vger.kernel.org>. 35 36GIT 37--- 38Part of the link:git.html[git] suite 39
