+NAME
+----
+git-mkdelta - Creates a delta object
+
+
+SYNOPSIS
+--------
+'git-mkdelta' [-v] [-d N | --max-depth=N ] <reference_object> <target_object> [ <next_object> ... ]
+
+DESCRIPTION
+-----------
+Creates a delta object to replace <reference_object> by using an
+ordered list of potential objects to deltafy against earlier objects
+in the list.
+
+A cap on the depth of delta references can be provided as well,
+otherwise the default is to not have any limit. A limit of 0 will
+also undeltafy a given object.
+
+
+OPTIONS
+-------
+-v::
+ Verbose
+
+-d|--max-depth::
+ limit the number of delta references in a chain
+ If 0 then all objects are undeltafied.
