40 Reads given idx file for packed Git archive created with the \fIgit pack\-objects\fR command and verifies idx file and the corresponding pack file\&.
45 The idx files to verify\&.
50 After verifying the pack, show list of objects contained in the pack and a histogram of delta chain length\&.
55 Do not verify the pack contents; only show the histogram of delta chain length\&. With

61 Do not interpret any more arguments as options\&.
