-NAME
-----
-git-commit-tree - Create a new commit object
-
-
-SYNOPSIS
---------
-[verse]
-'git commit-tree' <tree> [(-p <parent>)...]
-'git commit-tree' [(-p <parent>)...] [-S[<keyid>]] [(-m <message>)...]
-		  [(-F <file>)...] <tree>
-
-
-DESCRIPTION
------------
-This is usually not what an end user wants to run directly.  See
-linkgit:git-commit[1] instead.
-
-Creates a new commit object based on the provided tree object and
-emits the new commit object id on stdout. The log message is read
-from the standard input, unless `-m` or `-F` options are given.
-
-The `-m` and `-F` options can be given any number of times, in any
-order. The commit log message will be composed in the order in which
-the options are given.
-
-A commit object may have any number of parents. With exactly one
-parent, it is an ordinary commit. Having more than one parent makes
-the commit a merge between several lines of history. Initial (root)
-commits have no parents.
-
-While a tree represents a particular directory state of a working
-directory, a commit represents that state in "time", and explains how
-to get there.
-
-Normally a commit would identify a new "HEAD" state, and while Git
-doesn't care where you save the note about that state, in practice we
-tend to just write the result to the file that is pointed at by
-`.git/HEAD`, so that we can always see what the last committed
-state was.
-
-OPTIONS
--------
-<tree>::
-	An existing tree object.
-
--p <parent>::
-	Each `-p` indicates the id of a parent commit object.
-
--m <message>::
-	A paragraph in the commit log message. This can be given more than
-	once and each <message> becomes its own paragraph.
-
--F <file>::
-	Read the commit log message from the given file. Use `-` to read
-	from the standard input. This can be given more than once and the
-	content of each file becomes its own paragraph.
-
--S[<keyid>]::
---gpg-sign[=<keyid>]::
-	GPG-sign commits. The `keyid` argument is optional and
-	defaults to the committer identity; if specified, it must be
-	stuck to the option without a space.
-
---no-gpg-sign::
-	Do not GPG-sign commit, to countermand a `--gpg-sign` option
-	given earlier on the command line.
-
-
-Commit Information
-------------------
-
-A commit encapsulates:
-
-- all parent object ids
-- author name, email and date
-- committer name and email and the commit time.
-
-While parent object ids are provided on the command line, author and
-committer information is taken from the following environment variables,
-if set:
-
-	GIT_AUTHOR_NAME
-	GIT_AUTHOR_EMAIL
-	GIT_AUTHOR_DATE
-	GIT_COMMITTER_NAME
-	GIT_COMMITTER_EMAIL
-	GIT_COMMITTER_DATE
-
-(nb "<", ">" and "\n"s are stripped)
-
-In case (some of) these environment variables are not set, the information
-is taken from the configuration items user.name and user.email, or, if not
-present, the environment variable EMAIL, or, if that is not set,
-system user name and the hostname used for outgoing mail (taken
-from `/etc/mailname` and falling back to the fully qualified hostname when
-that file does not exist).
-
-A commit comment is read from stdin. If a changelog
-entry is not provided via "<" redirection, 'git commit-tree' will just wait
-for one to be entered and terminated with ^D.
