| Option | What it does |
|---|---|
| `--allow-deletions` | In sparse clones, allow files absent from disk to be deleted (default: preserve unfetched entries) |
| `--allow-secret-file` | Commit PATH although it looks like a vault secret (a zip with a key file in it); names one file, repeatable |
| `--amend` | Replace the last commit (not yet pushed) with the working copy and/or a new -m message |
| `-d`, `--directory` | Vault directory (default: .) |
