Function git_features::hash::bytes_of_file

pub fn bytes_of_file(
    path: impl AsRef<Path>, 
    num_bytes_from_start: usize, 
    kind: Kind, 
    progress: &mut impl Progress
) -> Result<ObjectId>

Compute the hash of kind for the bytes in the file at path, hashing only the first num_bytes_from_start while initializing and calling progress.

num_bytes_from_start is useful to avoid reading trailing hashes, which are never part of the hash itself.

Note

• Only available with the git-object feature enabled due to usage of the git_hash::Kind enum and the git_hash::ObjectId return value.
• Interrupts are supported.
