My goal is to build a kernel from a repository and a commit/tag provided by a user, and I would like to know if the commit exists before I clone the whole tree and then realize,"ah, there so no commit with this id, they must have made a typo".
The best thing I have found is git ls-remote, but I am not sure it includes all the commits, tags or branches. I appreciate any help! -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "Git for human beings" group.
