NAME

       lei-blob - display a git blob, reconstructing from mail if necessary

SYNOPSIS

       lei blob [OPTIONS] OID

DESCRIPTION

       Display a git blob.  The blob may correspond to a message from the local store, any local
       external, or blobs associated with a project git repository (if run from a git (working)
       directory).  For blobs which do not exist, it will attempt to recreate the blob using
       patch emails.

OPTIONS

       --git-dir=DIR
           Specify an additional .git/ directory to scan.  This option may be given multiple
           times.

           Default: the output of "git rev-parse --git-dir"

       --no-cwd
           Do not look in the git repository of the current working directory.

       --no-mail
           Do not look in mail storage for "OID".  This is implied by "--oid-a", "--path-a", and
           "--path-b".

       -A OID-A
       --oid-a=OID-A
           Provide pre-image object ID as a hint for reconstructing "OID".

       -a PATH-A
       --path-a=PATH-A
           Provide pre-image pathname as a hint for reconstructing "OID".

       -b PATH-B
       --path-b=PATH-B
           Provide post-image pathname as a hint for reconstructing "OID".

       -v
       --verbose
           Provide more feedback on stderr.

       The following options are also supported and are described in lei-q(1).

       --remote
           Remote externals only get queried when the blob needs to be reconstructed from patch
           emails.

       --no-local
       --no-external
       -I LOCATION, --include=LOCATION
       --exclude=LOCATION
       --only=LOCATION
       --no-import-remote
       --torsocks=auto|no|yes
       --no-torsocks
       --proxy=PROTOCOL://HOST[:PORT]
