 DESCRIPTION
@@ -61,6 +61,18 @@ base-name::
 	side, because delta data needs to be applied that many
 	times to get to the necessary object.
 
+--compression-level::
+	Set zlib compression level for the object data.  The
+	compression level is a number from 0 to 9, where 0 means
+	no compression, 1 indicates the fastest compression
+	method (less compression), and 9 indicates the slowest
+	compression method (best compression).  The default
+	compression level is 6.  Setting the compression level
+	to 0 may be useful when the pack will be compressed as a
+	whole at a later stage (in the pack format every object
+	is compressed separately to allow random access, which
+	is less efficient than compressing the whole file).
+
 --incremental::
 	This flag causes an object already in a pack ignored
 	even if it appears in the standard input.
