Subject: Newbie question: equiv of: cvs co -p <filename> ?
Date: Tue, 09 Aug 2005 17:59:14 -0400 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <ddb8vl$ifq$1@sea.gmane.org> (raw)
How can we cat the latest committed state of a file to stdout?
I hacked this:
#!/bin/bash
ID=`git-ls-files -s | grep $1 | cut -d ' ' -f 2`
TMP=`git-unpack-file $ID`
cat $TMP
rm $TMP
but its really ugly! It must be easier than this?
John
