443 Give the output in the short-format.
454 Show the branch and tracking info even in short-format.
462 Give the output in an easy-to-parse format for scripts.
463 This is similar to the short output, but will remain stable
464 across git versions and regardless of user configuration. See
472 --untracked-files[=
<mode
>]
476 Show untracked files.
478 <div class=
"paragraph"><p>The mode parameter is optional (defaults to
<em>all
</em>), and is used to
479 specify the handling of untracked files; when -u is not used, the
480 default is
<em>normal
</em>, i.e. show untracked files and directories.
</p></div>
481 <div class=
"paragraph"><p>The possible options are:
</p></div>
482 <div class=
"ulist"><ul>
485 <em>no
</em> - Show no untracked files
490 <em>normal
</em> - Shows untracked files and directories
495 <em>all
</em> - Also shows individual files in untracked directories.
497 <div class=
"paragraph"><p>The default can be changed using the status.showUntrackedFiles
498 configuration variable documented in
<a href=
"git-config.html">git-config(
1)
</a>.
</p></div>
503 --ignore-submodules[=
<when
>]
507 Ignore changes to submodules when looking for changes.
<when
> can be
508 either
"none",
"untracked",
"dirty" or
"all", which is the default.
509 Using
"none" will consider the submodule modified when it either contains
510 untracked or modified files or its HEAD differs from the commit recorded
511 in the superproject and can be used to override any settings of the
512 <em>ignore
</em> option in
<a href=
"git-config.html">git-config(
1)
</a> or
<a href=
"gitmodules.html">gitmodules(
5)
</a>. When
513 "untracked" is used submodules are not considered dirty when they only
514 contain untracked content (but they are still scanned for modified
515 content). Using
"dirty" ignores all changes to the work tree of submodules,
516 only changes to the commits stored in the superproject are shown (this was
517 the behavior before
1.7.0). Using
"all" hides all changes to submodules
518 (and suppresses the output of submodule summaries when the config option
519 <tt>status.submodulesummary
</tt> is set).
527 Show ignored files as well.
535 Terminate entries with NUL, instead of LF. This implies
536 the
<tt>--porcelain
</tt> output format if no other format is given.

542 <div class=

543 <div class=
"paragraph"><p>The output from this command is designed to be used as a commit
544 template comment, and all the output lines are prefixed with
<em>#

545 The default, long format, is designed to be human readable,
546 verbose and descriptive. Its contents and format are subject to change
547 at any time.
</p></div>
548 <div class=
"paragraph"><p>The paths mentioned in the output, unlike many other git commands, are
549 made relative to the current directory if you are working in a
550 subdirectory (this is on purpose, to help cutting and pasting). See
551 the status.relativePaths config option below.

562 <div class=

34) characters, and with
566 interior special characters backslash-escaped.

567 <div class=

641 not to change in a backwards-incompatible way between git versions or

659 <div class=
"paragraph"><p>There is also an alternate -z format recommended for machine parsing. In
660 that format, the status field is the same, but some other things
661 change. First, the
<em>-
></em> is omitted from rename entries and the field
662 order is reversed (e.g
<em>from -
> to
</em> becomes
<em>to from
</em>). Second, a NUL
663 (ASCII
0) follows each filename, replacing space as a field separator
664 and the terminating newline (but a space still separates the status
665 field from the first filename). Third, filenames containing special
666 characters are not specially formatted; no quoting or
667 backslash-escaping is performed. Fourth, there is no branch line.
