git lfs pointer --file=path/to/file --pointer=path/to/pointer
git lfs pointer --file=path/to/file --stdin
git lfs pointer --check --file=path/to/file
Builds and optionally compares generated pointer files to ensure consistency between different Git LFS implementations.
-
--file
: A local file to build the pointer from. -
--pointer
: A local file including the contents of a pointer generated from another implementation. This is compared to the pointer generated from--file
. -
--stdin
: Reads the pointer from STDIN to compare with the pointer generated from--file
. -
--check
: Reads the pointer from STDIN (if--stdin
is given) or the filepath (if--file
) is given. If neither or both of--stdin
and--file
are given, the invocation is invalid. Exits 0 if the data read is a valid Git LFS pointer. Exits 1 otherwise.
Part of the git-lfs(1) suite.
