 --delete::

+--edit <object>::
+       Edit an object's content interactively. The existing content
+       for <object> is pretty-printed into a temporary file, an
+       editor is launched on the file, and the result is parsed to
+       create a new object of the same type as <object>. A
+       replacement ref is then created to replace <object> with the
+       newly created object. See linkgit:git-var[1] for details about
+       how the editor will be chosen.
+
+--raw::
+       When editing, provide the raw object contents rather than
+       pretty-printed ones. Currently this only affects trees, which
+       will be shown in their binary form. This is harder to work with,
+       but can help when repairing a tree that is so corrupted it
+       cannot be pretty-printed. Note that you may need to configure
+       your editor to cleanly read and write binary data.
+
+--graft <commit> [<parent>...]::
+       Create a graft commit. A new commit is created with the same
+       content as <commit> except that its parents will be
+       [<parent>...] instead of <commit>'s parents. A replacement ref
+       is then created to replace <commit> with the newly created
+       commit. See contrib/convert-grafts-to-replace-refs.sh for an
+       example script based on this option that can convert grafts to
