2 * Check-out files from the "current cache directory"
4 * Copyright (C) 2005 Linus Torvalds
6 * Careful: order of argument flags does matter. For example,
8 * git-checkout-cache -a -f file.c
10 * Will first check out all files listed in the cache (but not
11 * overwrite any old ones), and then force-checkout "file.c" a
12 * second time (ie that one _will_ overwrite any old contents
13 * with the same filename).
15 * Also, just doing "git-checkout-cache" does nothing. You probably
16 * meant "git-checkout-cache -a". And if you want to force it, you
17 * want "git-checkout-cache -f -a".
19 * Intuitiveness is not the goal here. Repeatability is. The
20 * reason for the "no arguments means no work" thing is that
21 * from scripts you are supposed to be able to do things like
23 * find . -name '*.h' -print0 | xargs -0 git-checkout-cache -f --
25 * which will force all existing *.h files to be replaced with
26 * their cached copies. If an empty command line implied "all",
27 * then this would force-refresh everything in the cache, which
30 * Oh, and the "--" is just a good idea when you know the rest
31 * will be filenames. Just so that you wouldn't have a filename
32 * of "-a" causing problems (not possible in the above example,
33 * but get used to it in scripting!).
