Early text written in 2006 explains the "--abbrev=<n>" option to "show only a partial prefix", without saying that the length of the partial prefix is not necessarily the number given to the option to ensure that the output names the object uniquely. Update documentation for the diff family of commands, "blame", "branch --verbose", "ls-files" and "ls-tree" to stress that the short prefix must uniquely refer to an object, and <n> is merely the mininum number of hexdigits used in the prefix.

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> [<path>...]
|
|
|
|
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
|
|
'<path>' 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 '<path>' 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\0 line termination on output and do not quote filenames.
|
|
See OUTPUT FORMAT below for more information.
|
|
|
|
--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 the shortest prefix that is at least '<n>'
|
|
hexdigits long that uniquely refers the object.
|
|
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.
|
|
|
|
[<path>...]::
|
|
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>
|
|
|
|
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.
|
|
|
|
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.
