man cg-status (Commandes) - show status of your working tree

NAME

cg-status - show status of your working tree

cg-status [-g] [[-n] -s STATUS] [-w] [-x] [DIRPATH]

The output includes the list of branches and merge status. Current branch is marked by ">", remote branches are marked by "R".

Then, the files in the working tree are printed out. The output has the following format:

<status flag> <file>

where <status flag> can be one of the following:

?: <file> is unknown.
A: <file> has been added.
D: <file> has been deleted.
!: <file> is gone from your working copy but not deleted by cg-rm.
M: <file> has been touched or modified.
m: <file> has been touched or modified, but will not be automatically committed the next time you call cg-commit. This is used during a merge to mark files which contained local changes before the merge.

If neither -g or -w is passed, both is shown; otherwise, only the corresponding parts are shown.

-g: Show the GIT repository information.
-n: Do not show status flags. This is probably useful only when you filter the flags for a single specific flag using the -s option.
-s STATUS: Show only files with the given status flag, e.g. -s D. You can list multiple flags (-s MmA) to filter for all of them.
-w: Show the working tree file list.
-x: Don't exclude any files from listing.
DIRPATH: Path to the directory to use as the base for the working tree file list (instead of the current directory).
-h, --help: Print usage help.

$GIT_DIR/info/exclude: If the file exists it will be used to prune which files to show status for. The format is similar to the dontdiff file; each line contains a pattern for a file or group of files to exclude.
$TREE_DIR/.gitignore: .gitignore in the working tree will be used as an exclude file. The excludes are applied from the project root approaching the current subdirectory.
