14DESCRIPTION
15-----------
seanae0b2192006-05-05 15:05:36 -040016Read a packed archive (.pack) from the standard input, expanding
17the objects contained within and writing them into the repository in
18"loose" (one object per file) format.
19
20Objects that already exist in the repository will *not* be unpacked
21from the pack-file. Therefore, nothing will be unpacked if you use
22this command on a pack-file that exists within the target repository.
23
24Please see the `git-repack` documentation for options to generate
25new packs and replace existing ones.
