It wont work for arguments with special characters (like ", : or *). It is generally not possible on Windows, so I didn't even try. Signed-off-by: Junio C Hamano <gitster@pobox.com>

NAME
----
git-write-tree - Create a tree object from the current index
SYNOPSIS
--------
'git-write-tree' [--missing-ok] [--prefix=<prefix>/]
DESCRIPTION
-----------
Creates a tree object using the current index.
The index must be in a fully merged state.
Conceptually, `git-write-tree` sync()s the current index contents
into a set of tree files.
In order to have that match what is actually in your directory right
now, you need to have done a `git-update-index` phase before you did the
`git-write-tree`.
OPTIONS
-------
--missing-ok::
Normally `git-write-tree` ensures that the objects referenced by the
directory exist in the object database. This option disables this
check.
--prefix=<prefix>/::
Writes a tree object that represents a subdirectory
`<prefix>`. This can be used to write the tree object
for a subproject that is in the named subdirectory.
