pachctl get file #
Return the contents of a file.
Synopsis #
This command returns the contents of a file. While using this command, take special note of how you can use ancestry syntax (e.g., appending^2 or .-1 to repo@branch) to retrieve the contents of a file from a previous commit.
- To specify the project where the repo is located, use the –project flag
- To specify the output path, use the –output flag
- To specify the number of bytes to offset the read by, use the –offset-bytes flag
- To retry the operation if it fails, use the –retry flag
