This is only - valid with a single pathname. - --v, --verbose:: - Instead of printing the paths that are excluded, for each path - that matches an exclude pattern, print the exclude pattern - together with the path. (Matching an exclude pattern usually - means the path is excluded, but if the pattern begins with '!' - then it is a negated pattern and matching it means the path is - NOT excluded.) -+ -For precedence rules within and between exclude sources, see -linkgit:gitignore[5]. - ---stdin:: - Read pathnames from the standard input, one per line, - instead of from the command-line. - --z:: - The output format is modified to be machine-parsable (see - below). If `--stdin` is also given, input paths are separated - with a NUL character instead of a linefeed character. - --n, --non-matching:: - Show given paths which don't match any pattern. This only - makes sense when `--verbose` is enabled, otherwise it would - not be possible to distinguish between paths which match a - pattern and those which don't. - ---no-index:: - Don't look in the index when undertaking the checks. This can - be used to debug why a path became tracked by e.g. `git add .` - and was not ignored by the rules as expected by the user or when - developing patterns including negation to match a path previously - added with `git add -f`. - -OUTPUT ------- - -By default, any of the given pathnames which match an ignore pattern -will be output, one per line. If no pattern matches a given path, -nothing will be output for that path; this means that path will not be -ignored. - -If `--verbose` is specified, the output is a series of lines of the form: - -<source> <COLON> <linenum> <COLON> <pattern> <HT> <pathname> - -<pathname> is the path of a file being queried, <pattern> is the -matching pattern, <source> is the pattern's source file, and <linenum> -is the line number of the pattern within that source. If the pattern -contained a `!` prefix or `/` suffix, it will be preserved in the -output. <source> will be an absolute path when referring to the file -configured by `core.excludesFile`, or relative to the repository root -when referring to `.git/info/exclude` or a per-directory exclude file. - -If `-z` is specified, the pathnames in the output are delimited by the -null character; if `--verbose` is also specified then null characters -are also used instead of colons and hard tabs: - -<source> <NULL> <linenum> <NULL> <pattern> <NULL> <pathname> <NULL> - -If `-n` or `--non-matching` are specified, non-matching pathnames will -also be output, in which case all fields in each output record except -for <pathname> will be empty. This can be useful when running -non-interactively, so that files can be incrementally streamed to -STDIN of a long-running check-ignore process, and for each of these -files, STDOUT will indicate whether that file matched a pattern or -not. (Without this option, it would be impossible to tell whether the -absence of output for a given file meant that it didn't match any -pattern, or that the output hadn't been generated yet.) - -Buffering happens as documented under the `GIT_FLUSH` option in -linkgit:git[1]. The caller is responsible for avoiding deadlocks -caused by overfilling an input buffer or reading from an empty output -buffer. - -EXIT STATUS ------------ - -0:: - One or more of the provided paths is ignored. - -1:: - None of the provided paths are ignored. - -128:: - A fatal error was encountered. - -SEE ALSO --------- -linkgit:gitignore[5] -linkgit:git-config[1] -linkgit:git-ls-files[1] - -GIT ---- -Part of the linkgit:git[1] suite |
