GIT-CHECK-ATTR(1) | Git Manual | GIT-CHECK-ATTR(1) |
NAME
git-check-attr - Display gitattributes information
SYNOPSIS
git check-attr [--source <tree-ish>] [-a | --all | <attr>...] [--] <pathname>... git check-attr --stdin [-z] [--source <tree-ish>] [-a | --all | <attr>...]
DESCRIPTION
For every pathname, this command will list if each attribute is unspecified, set, or unset as a gitattribute on that pathname.
OPTIONS
-a, --all
--cached
--stdin
-z
--source=<tree-ish>
--
If none of --stdin, --all, or -- is used, the first argument will be treated as an attribute and the rest of the arguments as pathnames.
OUTPUT
The output is of the form: <path> COLON SP <attribute> COLON SP <info> LF
unless -z is in effect, in which case NUL is used as delimiter: <path> NUL <attribute> NUL <info> NUL
<path> is the path of a file being queried, <attribute> is an attribute being queried, and <info> can be either:
unspecified
unset
set
<value>
Buffering happens as documented under the GIT_FLUSH option in git(1). The caller is responsible for avoiding deadlocks caused by overfilling an input buffer or reading from an empty output buffer.
EXAMPLES
In the examples, the following .gitattributes file is used:
*.java diff=java -crlf myAttr NoMyAttr.java !myAttr README caveat=unspecified
$ git check-attr diff org/example/MyClass.java org/example/MyClass.java: diff: java
$ git check-attr crlf diff myAttr -- org/example/MyClass.java org/example/MyClass.java: crlf: unset org/example/MyClass.java: diff: java org/example/MyClass.java: myAttr: set
$ git check-attr --all -- org/example/MyClass.java org/example/MyClass.java: diff: java org/example/MyClass.java: myAttr: set
$ git check-attr myAttr -- org/example/MyClass.java org/example/NoMyAttr.java org/example/MyClass.java: myAttr: set org/example/NoMyAttr.java: myAttr: unspecified
$ git check-attr caveat README README: caveat: unspecified
