git

This directory contains various per-hash values that are used in the testsuite.

Each file contains lines containing a key-value pair; blank lines and lines starting with # are ignored. The key and value are separated by whitespace (specifically, those whitespace in the default $IFS). The key consists only of shell identifier characters, and the value consists of a hash algorithm, colon, and value. The hash algorithm also consists only of shell identifier characters; it should match the value in object-file.c.

For example, the following lines map the key "rawsz" to "20" if SHA-1 is in use and to "32" if SHA-256 is in use:

rawsz sha1:20 rawsz sha256:32

The keys and values used here are loaded by test_oid_init (see the README file in the "t" directory) and are used by calling test_oid.
