git-clean(1)
============
NAME
----
git-clean - Remove untracked files from the working tree
SYNOPSIS
--------
[verse]
Make the DESCRIPTION match <x>... items in the SYNOPSIS When the SYNOPSIS says e.g. "<path>...", it is nice if the DESCRIPTION also mentions "<path>..." and says the specified "paths" (note plural) are used for $whatever. This fixes the obvious mismatches. Signed-off-by: Abhijit Menon-Sen <ams@toroid.org> Signed-off-by: Junio C Hamano <gitster@pobox.com>

DESCRIPTION

Documentation: git-clean: make description more readable The existing text is a little bit awkward. This rewrites the description section to be more readable and friendly. Signed-off-by: Wesley J. Landaker <wjl@icecavern.net> Signed-off-by: Junio C Hamano <gitster@pobox.com>

git-clean doc: the command only affects paths under $(cwd) Fredrik Skolmli and Thomas Rast noticed that it was left unstated that "git clean" ran from a subdirectory will not affect anything outside it, with or without path limiters. Signed-off-by: Junio C Hamano <gitster@pobox.com>

Cleans the working tree by recursively removing files that are not
under version control, starting from the current directory.

Normally, only files unknown to git are removed, but if the '-x'
option is specified, ignored files are also removed. This can, for
example, be useful to remove all build products.

If any optional `<path>...` arguments are given, only those paths
are affected.
Teach git-clean optional <paths>... parameters. When optional paths arguments are given, git-clean passes them to underlying git-ls-files; with this, you can say: git clean 'temp-*' to clean only the garbage files whose names begin with 'temp-'.

OPTIONS
-------
-d::
Remove untracked directories in addition to untracked files.
clean: require double -f options to nuke nested git repository and work tree When you have an embedded git work tree in your work tree (be it an orphaned submodule, or an independent checkout of an unrelated project), "git clean -d -f" blindly descended into it and removed everything. This is rarely what the user wants. Signed-off-by: Junio C Hamano <gitster@pobox.com>
2009-07-01 00:33:45 +02:00
If an untracked directory is managed by a different git
repository, it is not removed by default. Use -f option twice
if you really want to remove such a directory.

If set, git-clean will refuse to run, unless forced with the new -f option, or not acting due to -n. Signed-off-by: Josh Triplett <josh@freedesktop.org> Signed-off-by: Junio C Hamano <junkio@cox.net>
2007-04-24 02:18:16 +02:00
-f::
UI consistency: allow --force for where -f means force git branch, checkout, clean, mv and tag all have an option -f to override certain checks. This patch makes them accept the long option --force as a synonym. While we're at it, document that checkout support --quiet as synonym for its short option -q.
