DESCRIPTION
|
|
|
|
-----------
|
|
|
|
This merges the file listing in the directory cache index with the
|
|
|
|
actual working directory list, and shows different combinations of the
|
|
|
|
two.
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
One or more of the options below may be used to determine the files
|
|
|
|
shown:

ls-files: unbreak "ls-files -i"
Commit b5227d8 changed the behavior of "ls-files" with
respect to includes, but accidentally broke the "-i" option
The original behavior was:
1. if no "-i" is given, cull all results according to --exclude*
2. if "-i" is given, show the inverse of (1)
The broken behavior was:
1. if no "-i" is given:
a. for "-o", cull results according to --exclude*
b. for index files, always show all
2. if "-i" is given:
a. for "-o", shows the inverse of (1a)
b. for index files, always show all
The fixed behavior keeps the new (1b) behavior introduced
by b5227d8, but fixes the (2b) behavior to show only ignored
files, not all files.
This patch also tweaks the documentation. The original text
was somewhat obscure in the first place, but it is also now
inaccurate (the relationship between (1b) and (2b) is not
quite a "reverse").

Show only ignored files in the output. When showing files in the
|
|
|
|
index, print only those matched by an exclude pattern. When
|
|
|
|
showing "other" files, show only those matched by an exclude
|
2018-05-03 18:48:26 +00:00
|
|
|
pattern. Standard ignore rules are not automatically activated,
|
|
|
|
therefore at least one of the `--exclude*` options is required.

--recurse-submodules::
|
doc: --recurse-submodules mostly applies to active submodules
The documentation refers to "initialized" or "populated" submodules,
to explain which submodules are affected by '--recurse-submodules', but
the real terminology here is 'active' submodules. Update the
documentation accordingly.
Some terminology:
- Active is defined in gitsubmodules(7), it only involves the
configuration variables 'submodule.active', 'submodule.<name>.active'
and 'submodule.<name>.url'. The function
submodule.c::is_submodule_active checks that a submodule is active.
- Populated means that the submodule's working tree is present (and the
gitfile correctly points to the submodule repository), i.e. either the
superproject was cloned with ` --recurse-submodules`, or the user ran
`git submodule update --init`, or `git submodule init [<path>]` and
`git submodule update [<path>]` separately which populated the
submodule working tree. This does not involve the 3 configuration
variables above.
- Initialized (at least in the context of the man pages involved in this
patch) means both "populated" and "active" as defined above, i.e. what
`git submodule update --init` does.
The --recurse-submodules option mostly affects active submodules. An
exception is `git fetch` where the option affects populated submodules.
As a consequence, in `git pull --recurse-submodules` the fetch affects
populated submodules, but the resulting working tree update only affects
active submodules.
In the documentation of `git-pull`, let's distinguish between the
fetching part which affects populated submodules, and the updating of
worktrees, which only affects active submodules.

<eolinfo> is the file content identification used by Git when

the "text" attribute is "auto" (or not set and core.autocrlf is not false).

<eolinfo> is either "-text", "none", "lf", "crlf", "mixed" or "".

not accessible in the working tree.

<eolattr> is the attribute that is used when checking out or committing,

it is either "", "-text", "text", "text=auto", "text eol=lf", "text eol=crlf".
|
2016-08-25 15:52:57 +00:00

'git ls-files --unmerged' and 'git ls-files --stage' can be used to examine
|
2005-05-10 21:32:30 +00:00

detailed information on unmerged paths.
|
|
|
|
|
2013-04-15 17:49:04 +00:00

|
For an unmerged path, instead of recording a single mode/SHA-1 pair,
|
2007-05-25 22:37:40 +00:00
|
|
|
the index records up to three such pairs; one from tree O in stage
|
2005-05-10 21:32:30 +00:00
|
|
|
1, A in stage 2, and B in stage 3. This information can be used by
|
2005-08-05 15:05:02 +00:00
|
|
|
the user (or the porcelain) to see what should eventually be recorded at the
|
2008-06-30 18:56:34 +00:00
|
|
|
path. (see linkgit:git-read-tree[1] for more information on state)

quoted as explained for the configuration variable `core.quotePath`

|
|
|
|
verbatim and the line is terminated by a NUL byte.

EXCLUDE PATTERNS

----------------

|
'git ls-files' can use a list of "exclude patterns" when
|
2005-07-24 22:47:26 +00:00
|
|
|
traversing the directory tree and finding files to show when the
|
2007-12-29 06:20:38 +00:00
|
|
|
flags --others or --ignored are specified. linkgit:gitignore[5]
|
2007-06-02 17:08:54 +00:00
|
|
|
specifies the format of exclude patterns.

|
|
|
|
2007-06-02 17:08:54 +00:00
|
|
|
These exclude patterns come from these places, in order:

|
|
|
|
2014-05-21 18:52:26 +00:00
|
|
|
1. The command-line flag --exclude=<pattern> specifies a
|
2007-06-02 17:08:54 +00:00
|
|
|
single pattern. Patterns are ordered in the same order
|
|
|
|
they appear in the command line.

|
|
|
|
2014-05-21 18:52:26 +00:00
|
|
|
2. The command-line flag --exclude-from=<file> specifies a
|
2007-06-02 17:08:54 +00:00
|
|
|
file containing a list of patterns. Patterns are ordered
|
|
|
|
in the same order they appear in the file.
|
2005-07-24 22:47:26 +00:00
|
|
|
|
2014-05-21 18:52:26 +00:00
|
|
|
3. The command-line flag --exclude-per-directory=<name> specifies
|
2010-01-09 23:33:00 +00:00
|
|
|
a name of the file in each directory 'git ls-files'
|
2007-06-02 17:08:54 +00:00
|
|
|
examines, normally `.gitignore`. Files in deeper
|
|
|
|
directories take precedence. Patterns are ordered in the
|
|
|
|
same order they appear in the files.
|
2005-07-24 22:47:26 +00:00
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
A pattern specified on the command line with --exclude or read
|
|
|
|
from the file specified with --exclude-from is relative to the
|
|
|
|
top of the directory tree. A pattern read from a file specified
|
|
|
|
by --exclude-per-directory is relative to the directory that the
|
|
|
|
pattern file appears in.
