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.
