NAME

----
|
|
git-status - Show the working tree status
|
|
|
|
|
|
SYNOPSIS
|
|
--------
|
|
[verse]
|
|
'git status' [<options>...] [--] [<pathspec>...]
|
|
|
|
DESCRIPTION
|
|
-----------
|
|
Displays paths that have differences between the index file and the
|
|
current HEAD commit, paths that have differences between the working
|
|
tree and the index file, and paths in the working tree that are not
|
|
tracked by Git (and are not ignored by linkgit:gitignore[5]). The first
|
|
are what you _would_ commit by running `git commit`; the second and
|
|
third are what you _could_ commit by running 'git add' before running
|
|
`git commit`.
|
|
|
|
OPTIONS
|
|
-------
|
|
|
|
-s::
|
|
--short::
|
|
Give the output in the short-format.
|
|
|
|
-b::
|
|
--branch::
|
|
Show the branch and tracking info even in short-format.
|
|
|
|
--porcelain::
|
|
Give the output in an easy-to-parse format for scripts.
|
|
This is similar to the short output, but will remain stable
|
|
across Git versions and regardless of user configuration. See
|
|
below for details.
|
|
|
|
--long::
|
|
Give the output in the long-format. This is the default.
|
|
|
|
-v::
|
|
--verbose::
|
|
In addition to the names of files that have been changed, also
|
|
show the textual changes that are staged to be committed
|
|
(i.e., like the output of `git diff --cached`). If `-v` is specified
|
|
twice, then also show the changes in the working tree that
|
|
have not yet been staged (i.e., like the output of `git diff`).
|
|
|
|
-u[<mode>]::
|
|
--untracked-files[=<mode>]::
|
|
Show untracked files.
|
|
+
|
|
The mode parameter is optional (defaults to 'all'), and is used to
|
|
specify the handling of untracked files.
|
|
+
|
|
The possible options are:
|
|
+
|
|
- 'no' - Show no untracked files.
|
|
- 'normal' - Shows untracked files and directories.
|
|
- 'all' - Also shows individual files in untracked directories.
|
|
+
|
|
When `-u` option is not used, untracked files and directories are
|
|
shown (i.e. the same as specifying `normal`), to help you avoid
|
|
forgetting to add newly created files. Because it takes extra work
|
|
to find untracked files in the filesystem, this mode may take some
|
|
time in a large working tree. You can use `no` to have `git status`
|
|
return more quickly without showing untracked files.
|
|
+
|
|
The default can be changed using the status.showUntrackedFiles
|
|
configuration variable documented in linkgit:git-config[1].
|
|
|
|
--ignore-submodules[=<when>]::
|
|
Ignore changes to submodules when looking for changes. <when> can be
|
|
either "none", "untracked", "dirty" or "all", which is the default.
|
|
Using "none" will consider the submodule modified when it either contains
|
|
untracked or modified files or its HEAD differs from the commit recorded
|
|
in the superproject and can be used to override any settings of the
|
|
'ignore' option in linkgit:git-config[1] or linkgit:gitmodules[5]. When
|
|
"untracked" is used submodules are not considered dirty when they only
|
|
contain untracked content (but they are still scanned for modified
|
|
content). Using "dirty" ignores all changes to the work tree of submodules,
|
|
only changes to the commits stored in the superproject are shown (this was
|
|
the behavior before 1.7.0). Using "all" hides all changes to submodules
|
|
(and suppresses the output of submodule summaries when the config option
|
|
`status.submoduleSummary` is set).
|
|
|
|
--ignored::
|
|
Show ignored files as well.
|
|
|
|
-z::
|
|
Terminate entries with NUL, instead of LF. This implies
|
|
the `--porcelain` output format if no other format is given.
|
|
|
|
--column[=<options>]::
|
|
--no-column::
|
|
Display untracked files in columns. See configuration variable
|
|
column.status for option syntax.`--column` and `--no-column`
|
|
without options are equivalent to 'always' and 'never'
|
|
respectively.
|
|
|
|
|
|
OUTPUT
|
|
------
|
|
The output from this command is designed to be used as a commit
|
|
template comment.
|
|
The default, long format, is designed to be human readable,
|
|
verbose and descriptive. Its contents and format are subject to change
|
|
at any time.
|
|
|
|
The paths mentioned in the output, unlike many other Git commands, are
|
|
made relative to the current directory if you are working in a
|
|
subdirectory (this is on purpose, to help cutting and pasting). See
|
|
the status.relativePaths config option below.
|
|
|
|
Short Format
|
|
~~~~~~~~~~~~
|
|
|
|
In the short-format, the status of each path is shown as
|
|
|
|
XY PATH1 -> PATH2
|
|
|
|
where `PATH1` is the path in the `HEAD`, and the " `-> PATH2`" part is
|
|
shown only when `PATH1` corresponds to a different path in the
|
|
index/worktree (i.e. the file is renamed). The `XY` is a two-letter
|
|
status code.
|
|
|
|
The fields (including the `->`) are separated from each other by a
|
|
single space. If a filename contains whitespace or other nonprintable
|
|
characters, that field will be quoted in the manner of a C string
|
|
literal: surrounded by ASCII double quote (34) characters, and with
|
|
interior special characters backslash-escaped.
|
|
|
|
For paths with merge conflicts, `X` and `Y` show the modification
|
|
states of each side of the merge. For paths that do not have merge
|
|
conflicts, `X` shows the status of the index, and `Y` shows the status
|
|
of the work tree. For untracked paths, `XY` are `??`. Other status
|
|
codes can be interpreted as follows:
|
|
|
|
* ' ' = unmodified
|
|
* 'M' = modified
|
|
* 'A' = added
|
|
* 'D' = deleted
|
|
* 'R' = renamed
|
|
* 'C' = copied
|
|
* 'U' = updated but unmerged
|
|
|
|
Ignored files are not listed, unless `--ignored` option is in effect,
|
|
in which case `XY` are `!!`.
|
|
|
|

Porcelain Format
|
|
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
|
|
|
|
The porcelain format is similar to the short format, but is guaranteed
|
|
not to change in a backwards-incompatible way between Git versions or
|
|
based on user configuration. This makes it ideal for parsing by scripts.
|
|
The description of the short format above also describes the porcelain
|
|
format, with a few exceptions:
|
|
|
|
1. The user's color.status configuration is not respected; color will
|
|
always be off.
|
|
|
|
2. The user's status.relativePaths configuration is not respected; paths
|
|
shown will always be relative to the repository root.
|
|
|
|
There is also an alternate -z format recommended for machine parsing. In
|
|
that format, the status field is the same, but some other things
|
|
change. First, the '\->' is omitted from rename entries and the field
|
|
order is reversed (e.g 'from \-> to' becomes 'to from'). Second, a NUL
|
|
(ASCII 0) follows each filename, replacing space as a field separator
|
|
and the terminating newline (but a space still separates the status
|
|
field from the first filename). Third, filenames containing special
|
|
characters are not specially formatted; no quoting or
|
|
backslash-escaping is performed.
|
|
|
|
CONFIGURATION
|
|
-------------
|
|
|
|
The command honors `color.status` (or `status.color` -- they
|
|
mean the same thing and the latter is kept for backward
|
|
compatibility) and `color.status.<slot>` configuration variables
|
|
to colorize its output.
|
|
|
|
If the config variable `status.relativePaths` is set to false, then all
|
|
paths shown are relative to the repository root, not to the current
|
|
directory.
|
|
|
|
If `status.submoduleSummary` is set to a non zero number or true (identical
|
|
to -1 or an unlimited number), the submodule summary will be enabled for
|
|
the long format and a summary of commits for modified submodules will be
|
|
shown (see --summary-limit option of linkgit:git-submodule[1]). Please note
|
|
that the summary output from the status command will be suppressed for all
|
|
submodules when `diff.ignoreSubmodules` is set to 'all' or only for those
|
|
submodules where `submodule.<name>.ignore=all`. To also view the summary for
|
|
ignored submodules you can either use the --ignore-submodules=dirty command
|
|
line option or the 'git submodule summary' command, which shows a similar
|
|
output but does not honor these settings.
