NAME
       bup-validate-object-links - scan the repository for broken object links


SYNOPSIS
       bup validate-object-links


DESCRIPTION
       bup  validate-object-links  scans  the  objects  in  the repository for and reports any “broken links” it
       finds, i.e. any links from a tree  or  commit  in  the  repository  to  an  object  that  doesn’t  exist.
       Currently,  it  doesn’t  include  “loose objects” (those not in packfiles – which git may create, but bup
       doesn’t), and it can’t handle tag objects (which bup also doesn’t create).

       Whenever a broken link (missing reference) is found, an ASCII encoded line formatted like  this  will  be
       printed to standard output:

              no MISSING_HASH for PARENT_HASH


EXIT STATUS
       The  exit  status  will  be 1 if any broken links are found, 0 if none are found, and some other positive
       integer for other failures.
