This program dumps the given revisions in a form suitable to be piped
-into gitlink:git-fast-import[1].

You can use it as a human readable bundle replacement (see

--progress=<n>::
Insert 'progress' statements every <n> objects, to be shown by

---signed-tags=(ignore|warn|strip|abort)::
+--signed-tags=(verbatim|warn|strip|abort)::
Specify how to handle signed tags. Since any transformation
after the export can change the tag names (which can also happen
when excluding revisions) the signatures will not match.
+
When asking to 'abort' (which is the default), this program will die
when encountering a signed tag. With 'strip', the tags will be made
-unsigned, with 'ignore', they will be silently ignored (i.e. not exported)
+unsigned, with 'verbatim', they will be silently exported
and with 'warn', they will be exported, but you will see a warning.
