NAME
----
git-mkdelta - Creates a delta object
SYNOPSIS
--------
'git-mkdelta' [-v] [-d N | --max-depth=N ] <reference_object> <target_object> [ <next_object> ... ]
DESCRIPTION
-----------
Creates a delta object to replace <reference_object> by using an
ordered list of potential objects to deltafy against earlier objects
in the list.
A cap on the depth of delta references can be provided as well,
otherwise the default is to not have any limit. A limit of 0 will
also undeltafy a given object.
OPTIONS
-------
-v::
Verbose
-d|--max-depth::
limit the number of delta references in a chain
If 0 then all objects are undeltafied.
