4 NAME
5 ----
6 git-ls-tree - Lists the contents of a tree object
9 SYNOPSIS
10 --------
11 'git-ls-tree' [-d] [-r] [-t] [-z] [--name-only] [--name-status] <tree-ish> [paths...]
13 DESCRIPTION
14 -----------
15 Lists the contents of a given tree object, like what "/bin/ls -a" does
16 in the current working directory. Note that the usage is subtly different,
17 though - 'paths' denote just a list of patterns to match, e.g. so specifying
18 directory name (without '-r') will behave differently, and order of the
19 arguments does not matter.
21 OPTIONS
22 -------
23 <tree-ish>::
24 Id of a tree-ish.
26 -d::
27 Show only the named tree entry itself, not its children.
29 -r::
30 Recurse into sub-trees.
32 -t::
33 Show tree entries even when going to recurse them. Has no effect
34 if '-r' was not passed. '-d' implies '-t'.
36 -z::
37 \0 line termination on output.
39 --name-only::
40 --name-status::
41 List only filenames (instead of the "long" output), one per line.
43 paths::
44 When paths are given, show them (note that this isn't really raw
45 pathnames, but rather a list of patterns to match). Otherwise
46 implicitly uses the root level of the tree as the sole path argument.
49 Output Format
50 -------------
51 <mode> SP <type> SP <object> TAB <file>
53 When the `-z` option is not used, TAB, LF, and backslash characters
54 in pathnames are represented as `\t`, `\n`, and `\\`, respectively.
