OPTIONS
-------
--h, --head::
+-h::
+--head::
Show the HEAD reference.
---tags, --heads::
+--tags::
+--heads::
Limit to only "refs/heads" and "refs/tags", respectively. These
options are not mutually exclusive; when given both, references stored
in "refs/heads" and "refs/tags" are displayed.
--d, --dereference::
+-d::
+--dereference::
Dereference tags into object IDs as well. They will be shown with "^{}"
appended.
--s, --hash::
+-s::
+--hash::
Only show the SHA1 hash, not the reference name. When also using
--dereference the dereferenced tag will still be shown after the SHA1.
Aside from returning an error code of 1, it will also print an error
message if '--quiet' was not specified.
---abbrev, --abbrev=len::
+--abbrev::
+--abbrev=len::
Abbreviate the object name. When using `--hash`, you do
not have to say `--hash --abbrev`; `--hash=len` would do.
--q, --quiet::
+-q::
+--quiet::
Do not print any results to stdout. When combined with '--verify' this
can be used to silently check if a reference exists.
---exclude-existing, --exclude-existing=pattern::
+--exclude-existing::
+--exclude-existing=pattern::
Make git-show-ref act as a filter that reads refs from stdin of the
form "^(?:<anything>\s)?<refname>(?:\^\{\})?$" and performs the
will only match the exact branch called "master".
-If nothing matches, gitlink:git-show-ref[1] will return an error code of 1,
+If nothing matches, linkgit:git-show-ref[1] will return an error code of 1,
and in the case of verification, it will show an error message.
For scripting, you can ask it to be quiet with the "--quiet" flag, which
