The new "ignore" config option controls the default behavior for "git status" and the diff family. It specifies under what circumstances they consider submodules as modified and can be set separately for each submodule. The command line option "--ignore-submodules=" has been extended to accept the new parameter "none" for both status and diff. Users that chose submodules to get rid of long work tree scanning times might want to set the "dirty" option for those submodules. This brings back the pre 1.7.0 behavior, where submodule work trees were never scanned for modifications. By using "--ignore-submodules=none" on the command line the status and diff commands can be told to do a full scan. This option can be set to the following values (which have the same name and meaning as for the "--ignore-submodules" option of status and diff): "all": All changes to the submodule will be ignored. "dirty": Only differences of the commit recorded in the superproject and the submodules HEAD will be considered modifications, all changes to the work tree of the submodule will be ignored. When using this value, the submodule will not be scanned for work tree changes at all, leading to a performance benefit on large submodules. "untracked": Only untracked files in the submodules work tree are ignored, a changed HEAD and/or modified files in the submodule will mark it as modified. "none" (which is the default): Either untracked or modified files in a submodules work tree or a difference between the subdmodules HEAD and the commit recorded in the superproject will make it show up as changed. This value is added as a new parameter for the "--ignore-submodules" option of the diff family and "git status" so the user can override the settings in the configuration.

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.
|
|
|
|
-b::
|
|
--branch::
|
|
Show the branch and tracking info even in 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.
|
|
|
|
--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]. 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).
|
|
|
|
-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
|
|
-------------------------------------------------
|
|
|
|
If -b is used the short-format status is preceded by a line
|
|
|
|
## branchname tracking info
|
|
|
|
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. Fourth, there is no branch line.
|
|
|
|
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]).
