=============

|
NAME
|
|
----
|
|
git-status - Show the working tree status
|
|
|
|
|
|
SYNOPSIS
|
|
--------
|
|
'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.
|
|
|
|
--porcelain::
|
|
Give the output in a stable, easy-to-parse format for scripts.
|
|
Currently this is identical to --short output, but is guaranteed
|
|
not to change in the future, making it safe for scripts.
|
|
|
|
-u[<mode>]::
|
|
--untracked-files[=<mode>]::
|
|
Show untracked files (Default: 'all').
|
|
+
|
|
The mode parameter is optional, 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.
|
|
--
|
|
+
|
|
See linkgit:git-config[1] for configuration variable
|
|
used to change the default for when the option is not
|
|
specified.
|
|
|
|
-z::
|
|
Terminate entries with NUL, instead of LF. This implies
|
|
the `--porcelain` output format if no other format is given.
|
|
|
|
|
|
OUTPUT
|
|
------
|
|
The output from this command is designed to be used as a commit
|
|
template comment, and all the output lines are prefixed with '#'.
|
|
The default, long format, is designed to be human readable,
|
|
verbose and descriptive. They are subject to change in 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.
|
|
|
|
In short-format, the status of each path is shown as
|
|
|
|
XY PATH1 -> PATH2
|
|
|
|
where `PATH1` is the path in the `HEAD`, and ` -> 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.
|
|
|
|
X Y Meaning
|
|
-------------------------------------------------
|
|
[MD] not updated
|
|
M [ MD] updated in index
|
|
A [ MD] added to index
|
|
D [ M] deleted from index
|
|
R [ MD] renamed in index
|
|
C [ MD] copied in index
|
|
[MARC] index and work tree matches
|
|
[ MARC] M work tree changed since index
|
|
[ MARC] D deleted in work tree
|
|
-------------------------------------------------
|
|
D D unmerged, both deleted
|
|
A U unmerged, added by us
|
|
U D unmerged, deleted by them
|
|
U A unmerged, added by them
|
|
D U unmerged, deleted by us
|
|
A A unmerged, both added
|
|
U U unmerged, both modified
|
|
-------------------------------------------------
|
|
? ? untracked
|
|
-------------------------------------------------
|
|
|
|
There is 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]).
