+--index-version=<version>[,<offset>]::
+ This is intended to be used by the test suite only. It allows
+ to force the version for the generated pack index, and to force
+ 64-bit index entries on objects located above the given offset.
+
+
+Note
+----
+
+Once the index has been created, the list of object names is sorted
+and the SHA1 hash of that list is printed to stdout. If --stdin was
+also used then this is prefixed by either "pack\t", or "keep\t" if a
+new .keep file was successfully created. This is useful to remove a
+.keep file used as a lock to prevent the race with gitlink:git-repack[1]
+mentioned above.
