Tree contents are not "a simple text file"

Open manuel opened this issue 11 years ago • 2 comments

Page 17 of the PDF says tree objects are stored as "a very simple text file", which is wrong. Tree objects are stored in a binary format, see http://git.rsbx.net/Documents/Git_Data_Formats.txt

Hello 2013!

apparently these guys think pdf == text.

~(2020 Armageddon).

Tried to correct that (maybe a bit too verbose?) in our fork with this commit: https://github.com/osegermany/git-internals-pdf/commit/27460362eed3879b2488953965b464ae652c0889
