In the first case the current time is used as 21modification time of each file in the archive. In the latter case the 22commit time as recorded in the referenced commit object is used instead. 23Additionally the commit ID is stored in a global extended pax header. 24It can be extracted using git-get-tar-commit-id. 25 26 27Author 28------ 29Written by Rene Scharfe. 30 31Documentation 32-------------- 33Documentation by David Greaves, Junio C Hamano and the git-list <git@vger.kernel.org>. 34 35GIT 36--- 37Part of the gitlink:git[7] suite 38
