== NAME

git-lfs-pointer - Build, compare, and check pointers

== SYNOPSIS

`git lfs pointer --file=path/to/file` +
`git lfs pointer --file=path/to/file --pointer=path/to/pointer` +
`git lfs pointer --file=path/to/file --stdin` +
`git lfs pointer --check --file=path/to/file`

== Description

Builds and optionally compares generated pointer files to ensure
consistency between different Git LFS implementations.

== OPTIONS

`--file`::
  A local file to build the pointer from.
`--pointer`::
  A local file including the contents of a pointer generated from another
  implementation. This is compared to the pointer generated from `--file`.
`--stdin`::
  Reads the pointer from STDIN to compare with the pointer generated from
  `--file`.
`--check`::
  Reads the pointer from STDIN (if `--stdin` is given) or the filepath (if
  `--file`) is given. If neither or both of `--stdin` and `--file` are given,
  the invocation is invalid. Exits 0 if the data read is a valid Git LFS
  pointer. Exits 1 otherwise.
`--strict`::
`--no-strict`::
  In conjunction with `--check`, `--strict` verifies that the pointer is
  canonical; that is, it would be the one created by Git LFS. If it is not,
  exits 2. The default, for backwards compatibility, is `--no-strict`, but this
  may change in a future version.
