DESCRIPTION
-----------
-s::
--stage::
- Show staged contents' object name, mode bits and stage number in the output.
+ Show staged contents' mode bits, object name and stage number in the output.
--directory::
If a whole directory is classified as "other", show just its
succeed.
-z::
- \0 line termination on output.
+ \0 line termination on output and do not quote filenames.
+ See OUTPUT below for more information.
-x <pattern>::
--exclude=<pattern>::
option forces paths to be output relative to the project
top directory.
+--recurse-submodules::
+ Recursively calls ls-files on each submodule in the repository.
+ Currently there is only support for the --cached mode.
+
--abbrev[=<n>]::
Instead of showing the full 40-byte hexadecimal object
lines, show only a partial prefix.
+
<eolattr> is the attribute that is used when checking out or committing,
it is either "", "-text", "text", "text=auto", "text eol=lf", "text eol=crlf".
-Note: Currently Git does not support "text=auto eol=lf" or "text=auto eol=crlf",
-that may change in the future.
+Since Git 2.10 "text=auto eol=lf" and "text=auto eol=crlf" are supported.
+
Both the <eolinfo> in the index ("i/<eolinfo>")
and in the working tree ("w/<eolinfo>") are shown for regular files,
Output
------
-'git ls-files' just outputs the filenames unless '--stage' is specified in
+'git ls-files' just outputs the filenames unless `--stage` is specified in
which case it outputs:
[<tag> ]<mode> <object> <stage> <file>
the user (or the porcelain) to see what should eventually be recorded at the
path. (see linkgit:git-read-tree[1] for more information on state)
-When `-z` option is not used, TAB, LF, and backslash characters
-in pathnames are represented as `\t`, `\n`, and `\\`,
-respectively.
+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.
