I rearranged this example the last minute and broke it. You might
say this proves the opposite of my point, though I don’t think that
would be warranted. Anyway, to feed the message into ‘git
commit-tree’ standard input, the relevant part of the example should
have read as follows:
commit=$(
printf "%s\n" message |
git commit-tree "$tree" -p "$parent"
)
Incidentally, outside of the user manual and contrib/examples/ in the
sources, the git documentation does not have many examples like this
to point to, which is too bad.
Sorry for the confusion,
Jonathan
