NAME

----
|
|
git-status - Show the working tree status
|
|
|
|
|
|
SYNOPSIS
|
|
--------
|
|
[verse]
|
|
'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.
|
|
|
|
--show-stash::
|
|
Show the number of entries currently stashed away.
|
|
|
|
--porcelain[=<version>]::
|
|
Give the output in an easy-to-parse format for scripts.
|
|
This is similar to the short output, but will remain stable
|
|
across Git versions and regardless of user configuration. See
|
|
below for details.
|
|
+
|
|
The version parameter is used to specify the format version.
|
|
This is optional and defaults to the original version 'v1' format.
|
|
|
|
--long::
|
|
Give the output in the long-format. This is the default.
|
|
|
|
-v::
|
|
--verbose::
|
|
In addition to the names of files that have been changed, also
|
|
show the textual changes that are staged to be committed
|
|
(i.e., like the output of `git diff --cached`). If `-v` is specified
|
|
twice, then also show the changes in the working tree that
|
|
have not yet been staged (i.e., like the output of `git diff`).
|
|
|
|
-u[<mode>]::
|
|
--untracked-files[=<mode>]::
|
|
Show untracked files.
|
|
+
|
|
The mode parameter is used to specify the handling of untracked files.
|
|
It is optional: it defaults to 'all', and if specified, it must be
|
|
stuck to the option (e.g. `-uno`, but not `-u no`).
|
|
+
|
|
The possible options are:
|
|
+
|
|
- 'no' - Show no untracked files.
|
|
- 'normal' - Shows untracked files and directories.
|
|
- 'all' - Also shows individual files in untracked directories.
|
|
+
|
|
When `-u` option is not used, untracked files and directories are
|
|
shown (i.e. the same as specifying `normal`), to help you avoid
|
|
forgetting to add newly created files. Because it takes extra work
|
|
to find untracked files in the filesystem, this mode may take some
|
|
time in a large working tree.
|
|
Consider enabling untracked cache and split index if supported (see
|
|
`git update-index --untracked-cache` and `git update-index
|
|
--split-index`), Otherwise you can use `no` to have `git status`
|
|
return more quickly without showing untracked files.
|
|
+
|
|
The default can be changed using the status.showUntrackedFiles
|
|
configuration variable documented in linkgit:git-config[1].
|
|
|
|
--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] or linkgit:gitmodules[5]. 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).
|
|
|
|
--ignored::
|
|
Show ignored files as well.
|
|
|
|
-z::
|
|
Terminate entries with NUL, instead of LF. This implies
|
|
the `--porcelain=v1` output format if no other format is given.
|
|
|
|
--column[=<options>]::
|
|
--no-column::
|
|
Display untracked files in columns. See configuration variable
|
|
column.status for option syntax.`--column` and `--no-column`
|
|
without options are equivalent to 'always' and 'never'
|
|
respectively.
|
|
|
|
|
|
OUTPUT
|
|
------
|
|
The output from this command is designed to be used as a commit
|
|
template comment.
|
|
The default, long format, is designed to be human readable,
|
|
verbose and descriptive. Its contents and format are subject to change
|
|
at 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.
|
|
|
|
Short Format
|
|
~~~~~~~~~~~~
|
|
|
|
In the short-format, the status of each path is shown as
|
|
|
|
XY PATH1 -> PATH2
|
|
|
|
where `PATH1` is the path in the `HEAD`, and the " `-> 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, unless `--ignored` option is in effect,
|
|
in which case `XY` are `!!`.
|
|
|
|
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
|
|
! ! ignored
|
|
-------------------------------------------------
|
|
|
|
Submodules have more state and instead report
|
|
M the submodule has a different HEAD than
|
|
recorded in the index
|
|
m the submodule has modified content
|
|
? the submodule has untracked files
|
|
since modified content or untracked files in a submodule cannot be added
|
|
via `git add` in the superproject to prepare a commit.
|
|
|
|
'm' and '?' are applied recursively. For example if a nested submodule
|
|
in a submodule contains an untracked file, this is reported as '?' as well.
|
|
|
|
If -b is used the short-format status is preceded by a line
|
|
|
|
## branchname tracking info
|
|
|
|
Porcelain Format Version 1
|
|
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
|
|
|
|
Version 1 porcelain format is similar to the short format, but is guaranteed
|
|
not to change in a backwards-incompatible way between Git versions or
|
|
based on user configuration. This makes it ideal for parsing by scripts.
|
|
The description of the short format above also describes the porcelain
|
|
format, with a few exceptions:
|
|
|
|
1. The user's color.status configuration is not respected; color will
|
|
always be off.
|
|
|
|
2. The user's status.relativePaths configuration is not respected; paths
|
|
shown will always be relative to the repository root.
|
|
|
|
There is also 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.
|
|
|
|
Any submodule changes are reported as modified `M` instead of `m` or single `?`.
|
|
|
|
Porcelain Format Version 2
|
|
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
|
|
|
|
Version 2 format adds more detailed information about the state of
|
|
the worktree and changed items. Version 2 also defines an extensible
|
|
set of easy to parse optional headers.
|
|
|
|
Header lines start with "#" and are added in response to specific
|
|
command line arguments. Parsers should ignore headers they
|
|
don't recognize.
|
|
|
|
### Branch Headers
|
|
|
|
If `--branch` is given, a series of header lines are printed with
|
|
information about the current branch.
|
|
|
|
Line Notes
|
|
------------------------------------------------------------
|
|
# branch.oid <commit> | (initial) Current commit.
|
|
# branch.head <branch> | (detached) Current branch.
|
|
# branch.upstream <upstream_branch> If upstream is set.
|
|
# branch.ab +<ahead> -<behind> If upstream is set and
|
|
the commit is present.
|
|
------------------------------------------------------------
|
|
|
|
### Changed Tracked Entries
|
|
|
|
Following the headers, a series of lines are printed for tracked
|
|
entries. One of three different line formats may be used to describe
|
|
an entry depending on the type of change. Tracked entries are printed
|
|
in an undefined order; parsers should allow for a mixture of the 3
|
|
line types in any order.
|
|
|
|
Ordinary changed entries have the following format:
|
|
|
|
1 <XY> <sub> <mH> <mI> <mW> <hH> <hI> <path>
|
|
|
|
Renamed or copied entries have the following format:
|
|
|
|
2 <XY> <sub> <mH> <mI> <mW> <hH> <hI> <X><score> <path><sep><origPath>
|
|
|
|
Field Meaning
|
|
--------------------------------------------------------
|
|
<XY> A 2 character field containing the staged and
|
|
unstaged XY values described in the short format,
|
|
with unchanged indicated by a "." rather than
|
|
a space.
|
|
<sub> A 4 character field describing the submodule state.
|
|
"N..." when the entry is not a submodule.
|
|
"S<c><m><u>" when the entry is a submodule.
|
|
<c> is "C" if the commit changed; otherwise ".".
|
|
<m> is "M" if it has tracked changes; otherwise ".".
|
|
<u> is "U" if there are untracked changes; otherwise ".".
|
|
<mH> The octal file mode in HEAD.
|
|
<mI> The octal file mode in the index.
|
|
<mW> The octal file mode in the worktree.
|
|
<hH> The object name in HEAD.
|
|
<hI> The object name in the index.
|
|
<X><score> The rename or copy score (denoting the percentage
|
|
of similarity between the source and target of the
|
|
move or copy). For example "R100" or "C75".
|
|
<path> The pathname. In a renamed/copied entry, this
|
|
is the path in the index and in the working tree.
|
|
<sep> When the `-z` option is used, the 2 pathnames are separated
|
|
with a NUL (ASCII 0x00) byte; otherwise, a tab (ASCII 0x09)
|
|
byte separates them.
|
|
<origPath> The pathname in the commit at HEAD. This is only
|
|
present in a renamed/copied entry, and tells
|
|
where the renamed/copied contents came from.
|
|
--------------------------------------------------------
|
|
|
|
Unmerged entries have the following format; the first character is
|
|
a "u" to distinguish from ordinary changed entries.
|
|
|
|
u <xy> <sub> <m1> <m2> <m3> <mW> <h1> <h2> <h3> <path>
|
|
|
|
Field Meaning
|
|
--------------------------------------------------------
|
|
<XY> A 2 character field describing the conflict type
|
|
as described in the short format.
|
|
<sub> A 4 character field describing the submodule state
|
|
as described above.
|
|
<m1> The octal file mode in stage 1.
|
|
<m2> The octal file mode in stage 2.
|
|
<m3> The octal file mode in stage 3.
|
|
<mW> The octal file mode in the worktree.
|
|
<h1> The object name in stage 1.
|
|
<h2> The object name in stage 2.
|
|
<h3> The object name in stage 3.
|
|
<path> The pathname.
|
|
--------------------------------------------------------
|
|
|
|
### Other Items
|
|
|
|
Following the tracked entries (and if requested), a series of
|
|
lines will be printed for untracked and then ignored items
|
|
found in the worktree.
|
|
|
|
Untracked items have the following format:
|
|
|
|
? <path>
|
|
|
|
Ignored items have the following format:
|
|
|
|
! <path>
|
|
|
|
### Pathname Format Notes and -z
|
|
|
|
When the `-z` option is given, pathnames are printed as is and
|
|
without any quoting and lines are terminated with a NUL (ASCII 0x00)
|
|
byte.
|
|
|
|
Without the `-z` option, pathnames with "unusual" characters are
|
|
quoted as explained for the configuration variable `core.quotePath`
|
|
(see linkgit:git-config[1]).
|
|
|
|
|
|
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]). Please note
|
|
that the summary output from the status command will be suppressed for all
|
|
submodules when `diff.ignoreSubmodules` is set to 'all' or only for those
|
|
submodules where `submodule.<name>.ignore=all`. To also view the summary for
|
|
ignored submodules you can either use the --ignore-submodules=dirty command
|
|
line option or the 'git submodule summary' command, which shows a similar
|
|
output but does not honor these settings.
