It would be nice if the "Future Work" section of Documentation/technical/commit-graph.txt had something about integration with 'git gc'. > With the `--stdin-commits` option, generate the new commit graph by > walking commits starting at the commits specified in stdin as a list > of OIDs in hex, one OID per line.

The "EXAMPLES" section still contains: * Write a graph file containing all reachable commits. + ------------------------------------------------ $ git show-ref -s | git commit-graph write --stdin-commits ------------------------------------------------ I wonder if this should have been changed to use `--reachable`.
