NAME

|
----
|
|
git-ls-tree - List the contents of a tree object
|
|
|
|
|
|
SYNOPSIS
|
|
--------
|
|
[verse]
|
|
'git ls-tree' [-d] [-r] [-t] [-l] [-z]
|
|
[--name-only] [--name-status] [--full-name] [--full-tree] [--abbrev=[<n>]]
|
|
<tree-ish> [paths...]
|
|
|
|
DESCRIPTION
|
|
-----------
|
|
Lists the contents of a given tree object, like what "/bin/ls -a" does
|
|
in the current working directory. Note that:
|
|
|
|
- the behaviour is slightly different from that of "/bin/ls" in that the
|
|
'paths' denote just a list of patterns to match, e.g. so specifying
|
|
directory name (without '-r') will behave differently, and order of the
|
|
arguments does not matter.
|
|
|
|
- the behaviour is similar to that of "/bin/ls" in that the 'paths' is
|
|
taken as relative to the current working directory. E.g. when you are
|
|
in a directory 'sub' that has a directory 'dir', you can run 'git
|
|
ls-tree -r HEAD dir' to list the contents of the tree (that is
|
|
'sub/dir' in 'HEAD'). You don't want to give a tree that is not at the
|
|
root level (e.g. 'git ls-tree -r HEAD:sub dir') in this case, as that
|
|
would result in asking for 'sub/sub/dir' in the 'HEAD' commit.
|
|
However, the current working directory can be ignored by passing
|
|
--full-tree option.
|
|
|
|
OPTIONS
|
|
-------
|
|
<tree-ish>::
|
|
Id of a tree-ish.
|
|
|
|
-d::
|
|
Show only the named tree entry itself, not its children.
|
|
|
|
-r::
|
|
Recurse into sub-trees.
|
|
|
|
-t::
|
|
Show tree entries even when going to recurse them. Has no effect
|
|
if '-r' was not passed. '-d' implies '-t'.
|
|
|
|
-l::
|
|
--long::
|
|
Show object size of blob (file) entries.
|
|
|
|
-z::
|
|
\0 line termination on output.
|
|
|
|
--name-only::
|
|
--name-status::
|
|
List only filenames (instead of the "long" output), one per line.
|
|
|
|
--abbrev[=<n>]::
|
|
Instead of showing the full 40-byte hexadecimal object
|
|
lines, show only a partial prefix.
|
|
Non default number of digits can be specified with --abbrev=<n>.
|
|
|
|
--full-name::
|
|
Instead of showing the path names relative to the current working
|
|
directory, show the full path names.
|
|
|
|
--full-tree::
|
|
Do not limit the listing to the current working directory.
|
|
Implies --full-name.
|
|
|
|
paths::
|
|
When paths are given, show them (note that this isn't really raw
|
|
pathnames, but rather a list of patterns to match). Otherwise
|
|
implicitly uses the root level of the tree as the sole path argument.
|
|
|
|
|
|
Output Format
|
|
-------------
|
|
<mode> SP <type> SP <object> TAB <file>
|
|
|
|
Unless the `-z` option is used, TAB, LF, and backslash characters
|
|
in pathnames are represented as `\t`, `\n`, and `\\`, respectively.
|
|
This output format is compatible with what '--index-info --stdin' of
|
|
'git update-index' expects.
|
|
|
|
When the `-l` option is used, format changes to
|
|
|
|
<mode> SP <type> SP <object> SP <object size> TAB <file>
|
|
|
|
Object size identified by <object> is given in bytes, and right-justified
|
|
with minimum width of 7 characters. Object size is given only for blobs
|
|
(file) entries; for other entries `-` character is used in place of size.
