NAME
git-ls-tree - List the contents of a tree object SYNOPSIS
git ls-tree [-d] [-r] [-t] [-l] [-z]
[name-only] [name-status] [full-name] [full-tree] [abbrev[=
]]
[ ...] 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
denotes 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
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
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[=
] 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=
. 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. [
...] 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 SP SP
