git-diagnose(1)
================
NAME
----
git-diagnose - Generate a zip archive of diagnostic information
SYNOPSIS
--------
[verse]
'git diagnose' [(-o | --output-directory) <path>] [(-s | --suffix) <format>]
[--mode=<mode>]
DESCRIPTION
-----------
Collects detailed information about the user's machine, Git client, and
repository state and packages that information into a zip archive. The
generated archive can then, for example, be shared with the Git mailing list to
help debug an issue or serve as a reference for independent debugging.
By default, the following information is captured in the archive:
* 'git version --build-options'
* The path to the repository root
* The available disk space on the filesystem
* The name and size of each packfile, including those in alternate object
stores
* The total count of loose objects, as well as counts broken down by
`.git/objects` subdirectory
Additional information can be collected by selecting a different diagnostic mode
using the `--mode` option.
This tool differs from linkgit:git-bugreport[1] in that it collects much more
detailed information with a greater focus on reporting the size and data shape
of repository contents.
OPTIONS
-------
-o <path>::
--output-directory <path>::
Place the resulting diagnostics archive in `<path>` instead of the
current directory.
-s <format>::
--suffix <format>::
Specify an alternate suffix for the diagnostics archive name, to create
a file named 'git-diagnostics-<formatted-suffix>'. This should take the
form of a strftime(3) format string; the current local time will be
used.
--mode=(stats|all)::
Specify the type of diagnostics that should be collected. The default behavior
of 'git diagnose' is equivalent to `--mode=stats`.
+
The `--mode=all` option collects everything included in `--mode=stats`, as well
as copies of `.git`, `.git/hooks`, `.git/info`, `.git/logs`, and
`.git/objects/info` directories. This additional information may be sensitive,
as it can be used to reconstruct the full contents of the diagnosed repository.
Users should exercise caution when sharing an archive generated with
`--mode=all`.
