This patch aims to freshen up a bit the git-ls-tree documentation. It hints that the list of paths are in fact patterns to be matched, explains the new -t, --name-only and --name-status options, corrects the original autorship information to refer to yours sincerely, corrects several grammar mistakes, etc. Since the documentation still deserves some significant work (at least proper description of the pattern matching), I also added the stub notice.

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

|
NAME
|
|
----
|
|
git-ls-tree - Lists the contents of a tree object.
|
|
|
|
|
|
SYNOPSIS
|
|
--------
|
|
'git-ls-tree' [-d] [-r] [-t] [-z] [--name-only] [--name-status] <tree-ish> [paths...]
|
|
|
|
DESCRIPTION
|
|
-----------
|
|
Lists the contents of a given tree object, like what "/bin/ls -a" does
|
|
in the current working directory. Note that the usage is subtly different,
|
|
though - 'paths' denote just a list of patterns to match, e.g. so specifying
|
|
directory name (without '-r') will behave differently, and order of the
|
|
arguments does not matter.
|
|
|
|
OPTIONS
|
|
-------
|
|
<tree-ish>::
|
|
Id of a tree-ish.
|
|
|
|
-d::
|
|
Show only the named tree entry itself, not its children.
|
|
|
|
-r::
|
|
Recurse into sub-trees.
|
|
|
|
-t::
|
|
Show tree entries even when going to recurse them. Has no effect
|
|
if '-r' was not passed. '-d' implies '-t'.
|
|
|
|
-z::
|
|
\0 line termination on output.
|
|
|
|
--name-only::
|
|
--name-status::
|
|
List only filenames (instead of the "long" output), one per line.
|
|
|
|
paths::
|
|
When paths are given, show them (note that this isn't really raw
|
|
pathnames, but rather a list of patterns to match). Otherwise
|
|
implicitly uses the root level of the tree as the sole path argument.
|
|
|
|
|
|
Output Format
|
|
-------------
|
|
<mode> SP <type> SP <object> TAB <file>
|
|
|
|
When the `-z` option is not used, TAB, LF, and backslash characters
|
|
in pathnames are represented as `\t`, `\n`, and `\\`, respectively.
