The output format from "git-diff-index", "git-diff-tree", |
|
"git-diff-files" and "git diff --raw" are very similar. |
|
|
|
These commands all compare two sets of things; what is |
|
compared differs: |
|
|
|
git-diff-index <tree-ish>:: |
|
compares the <tree-ish> and the files on the filesystem. |
|
|
|
git-diff-index --cached <tree-ish>:: |
|
compares the <tree-ish> and the index. |
|
|
|
git-diff-tree [-r] <tree-ish-1> <tree-ish-2> [<pattern>...]:: |
|
compares the trees named by the two arguments. |
|
|
|
git-diff-files [<pattern>...]:: |
|
compares the index and the files on the filesystem. |
|
|
|
|
|
An output line is formatted this way: |
|
|
|
------------------------------------------------ |
|
in-place edit :100644 100644 bcd1234... 0123456... M file0 |
|
copy-edit :100644 100644 abcd123... 1234567... C68 file1 file2 |
|
rename-edit :100644 100644 abcd123... 1234567... R86 file1 file3 |
|
create :000000 100644 0000000... 1234567... A file4 |
|
delete :100644 000000 1234567... 0000000... D file5 |
|
unmerged :000000 000000 0000000... 0000000... U file6 |
|
------------------------------------------------ |
|
|
|
That is, from the left to the right: |
|
|
|
. a colon. |
|
. mode for "src"; 000000 if creation or unmerged. |
|
. a space. |
|
. mode for "dst"; 000000 if deletion or unmerged. |
|
. a space. |
|
. sha1 for "src"; 0\{40\} if creation or unmerged. |
|
. a space. |
|
. sha1 for "dst"; 0\{40\} if creation, unmerged or "look at work tree". |
|
. a space. |
|
. status, followed by optional "score" number. |
|
. a tab or a NUL when '-z' option is used. |
|
. path for "src" |
|
. a tab or a NUL when '-z' option is used; only exists for C or R. |
|
. path for "dst"; only exists for C or R. |
|
. an LF or a NUL when '-z' option is used, to terminate the record. |
|
|
|
<sha1> is shown as all 0's if a file is new on the filesystem |
|
and it is out of sync with the index. |
|
|
|
Example: |
|
|
|
------------------------------------------------ |
|
:100644 100644 5be4a4...... 000000...... M file.c |
|
------------------------------------------------ |
|
|
|
When `-z` option is not used, TAB, LF, and backslash characters |
|
in pathnames are represented as `\t`, `\n`, and `\\`, |
|
respectively. |
|
|
|
diff format for merges |
|
---------------------- |
|
|
|
"git-diff-tree", "git-diff-files" and "git-diff --raw" |
|
can take '-c' or '--cc' option |
|
to generate diff output also for merge commits. The output differs |
|
from the format described above in the following way: |
|
|
|
. there is a colon for each parent |
|
. there are more "src" modes and "src" sha1 |
|
. status is concatenated status characters for each parent |
|
. no optional "score" number |
|
. single path, only for "dst" |
|
|
|
Example: |
|
|
|
------------------------------------------------ |
|
::100644 100644 100644 fabadb8... cc95eb0... 4866510... MM describe.c |
|
------------------------------------------------ |
|
|
|
Note that 'combined diff' lists only files which were modified from |
|
all parents. |
