When showing files in the + index, print only those matched by an exclude pattern. When + showing "other" files, show only those matched by an exclude + pattern. Standard ignore rules are not automatically activated, + therefore at least one of the `--exclude*` options is required. + +-s:: +--stage:: + Show staged contents' mode bits, object name and stage number in the output. + +--directory:: + If a whole directory is classified as "other", show just its + name (with a trailing slash) and not its whole contents. + +--no-empty-directory:: + Do not list empty directories. Has no effect without --directory. + +-u:: +--unmerged:: + Show unmerged files in the output (forces --stage) + +-k:: +--killed:: + Show files on the filesystem that need to be removed due + to file/directory conflicts for checkout-index to + succeed. + +-z:: + \0 line termination on output and do not quote filenames. + See OUTPUT below for more information. + +--deduplicate:: + When only filenames are shown, suppress duplicates that may + come from having multiple stages during a merge, or giving + `--deleted` and `--modified` option at the same time. + When any of the `-t`, `--unmerged`, or `--stage` option is + in use, this option has no effect. + +-x :: +--exclude=:: + Skip untracked files matching pattern. + Note that pattern is a shell wildcard pattern. See EXCLUDE PATTERNS + below for more information. + +-X :: +--exclude-from=:: + Read exclude patterns from ; 1 per line. + +--exclude-per-directory=:: + Read additional exclude patterns that apply only to the + directory and its subdirectories in . + +--exclude-standard:: + Add the standard Git exclusions: .git/info/exclude, .gitignore + in each directory, and the user's global exclusion file. + +--error-unmatch:: + If any does not appear in the index, treat this as an + error (return 1). + +--with-tree=:: + When using --error-unmatch to expand the user supplied + (i.e. path pattern) arguments to paths, pretend + that paths which were removed in the index since the + named are still present. Using this option + with `-s` or `-u` options does not make any sense. + +-t:: + This feature is semi-deprecated. For scripting purpose, + linkgit:git-status[1] `--porcelain` and + linkgit:git-diff-files[1] `--name-status` are almost always + superior alternatives, and users should look at + linkgit:git-status[1] `--short` or linkgit:git-diff[1] + `--name-status` for more user-friendly alternatives. ++ +-- +This option identifies the file status with the following tags (followed by +a space) at the start of each line: + + H:: cached + S:: skip-worktree + M:: unmerged + R:: removed/deleted + C:: modified/changed + K:: to be killed + ?:: other +-- + +-v:: + Similar to `-t`, but use lowercase letters for files + that are marked as 'assume unchanged' (see + linkgit:git-update-index[1]). + +-f:: + Similar to `-t`, but use lowercase letters for files + that are marked as 'fsmonitor valid' (see + linkgit:git-update-index[1]). + +--full-name:: + When run from a subdirectory, the command usually + outputs paths relative to the current directory. This + option forces paths to be output relative to the project + top directory. + +--recurse-submodules:: + Recursively calls ls-files on each active submodule in the repository. + Currently there is only support for the --cached and --stage modes. + +--abbrev[=]:: + Instead of showing the full 40-byte hexadecimal object + lines, show the shortest prefix that is at least '' + hexdigits long that uniquely refers the object. + Non default number of digits can be specified with --abbrev=. + +--debug:: + After each line that describes a file, add more data about its + cache entry. This is intended to show as much information as + possible for manual inspection; the exact format may change at + any time. + +--eol:: + Show and of files. + is the file content identification used by Git when + the "text" attribute is "auto" (or not set and core.autocrlf is not false). + is either "-text", "none", "lf", "crlf", "mixed" or "". ++ +"" means the file is not a regular file, it is not in the index or +not accessible in the working tree. ++ + is the attribute that is used when checking out or committing, +it is either "", "-text", "text", "text=auto", "text eol=lf", "text eol=crlf". +Since Git 2.10 "text=auto eol=lf" and "text=auto eol=crlf" are supported. ++ +Both the in the index ("i/") +and in the working tree ("w/") are shown for regular files, +followed by the ("attr/"). + +--sparse:: + If the index is sparse, show the sparse directories without expanding + to the contained files. Sparse directories will be shown with a + trailing slash, such as "x/" for a sparse directory "x". + +--format=:: + A string that interpolates `%(fieldname)` from the result being shown. + It also interpolates `%%` to `%`, and `%xx` where `xx` are hex digits + interpolates to character with hex code `xx`; for example `%00` + interpolates to `\0` (NUL), `%09` to `\t` (TAB) and %0a to `\n` (LF). + --format cannot be combined with `-s`, `-o`, `-k`, `-t`, `--resolve-undo` + and `--eol`. +\--:: + Do not interpret any more arguments as options. + +:: + Files to show. If no files are given all files which match the other + specified criteria are shown. + +OUTPUT +------ +'git ls-files' just outputs the filenames unless `--stage` is specified in +which case it outputs: + + [ ] + +'git ls-files --eol' will show + i/w/attr/ + +'git ls-files --unmerged' and 'git ls-files --stage' can be used to examine +detailed information on unmerged paths. + +For an unmerged path, instead of recording a single mode/SHA-1 pair, +the index records up to three such pairs; one from tree O in stage +1, A in stage 2, and B in stage 3. This information can be used by +the user (or the porcelain) to see what should eventually be recorded at the +path. (see linkgit:git-read-tree[1] for more information on state) + +Without the `-z` option, pathnames with "unusual" characters are +quoted as explained for the configuration variable `core.quotePath` +(see linkgit:git-config[1]). Using `-z` the filename is output +verbatim and the line is terminated by a NUL byte. + +It is possible to print in a custom format by using the `--format` +option, which is able to interpolate different fields using +a `%(fieldname)` notation. For example, if you only care about the +"objectname" and "path" fields, you can execute with a specific +"--format" like + + git ls-files --format='%(objectname) %(path)' + +FIELD NAMES +----------- +The way each path is shown can be customized by using the +`--format=` option, where the %(fieldname) in the + string for various aspects of the index entry are +interpolated. The following "fieldname" are understood: + +objectmode:: + The mode of the file which is recorded in the index. +objectname:: + The name of the file which is recorded in the index. +stage:: + The stage of the file which is recorded in the index. +eolinfo:index:: +eolinfo:worktree:: + The (see the description of the `--eol` option) of + the contents in the index or in the worktree for the path. +eolattr:: + The (see the description of the `--eol` option) + that applies to the path. +path:: + The pathname of the file which is recorded in the index. + +EXCLUDE PATTERNS +---------------- + +'git ls-files' can use a list of "exclude patterns" when +traversing the directory tree and finding files to show when the +flags --others or --ignored are specified. linkgit:gitignore[5] +specifies the format of exclude patterns. + +These exclude patterns come from these places, in order: + + 1. The command-line flag --exclude= specifies a + single pattern. Patterns are ordered in the same order + they appear in the command line. + + 2. The command-line flag --exclude-from= specifies a + file containing a list of patterns. Patterns are ordered + in the same order they appear in the file. + + 3. The command-line flag --exclude-per-directory= specifies + a name of the file in each directory 'git ls-files' + examines, normally `.gitignore`. Files in deeper + directories take precedence. Patterns are ordered in the + same order they appear in the files. + +A pattern specified on the command line with --exclude or read +from the file specified with --exclude-from is relative to the +top of the directory tree. A pattern read from a file specified +by --exclude-per-directory is relative to the directory that the +pattern file appears in. + +SEE ALSO +-------- +linkgit:git-read-tree[1], linkgit:gitignore[5] + +GIT +--- +Part of the linkgit:git[1] suite -- cgit v1.2.3
