The former paths are what you _could_ +commit by running 'git add' before running 'git +commit', and the latter paths are what you _would_ commit by +running 'git commit'. + +If there is no path that is different between the index file and +the current HEAD commit, the command exits with non-zero +status. + +The command takes the same set of options as `git-commit`; it +shows what would be committed if the same options are given to +`git-commit`. + + +OUTPUT +------ +The output from this command is designed to be used as a commit +template comments, and all the output lines are prefixed with '#'. + + +CONFIGURATION +------------- + +The command honors `color.status` (or `status.color` -- they +mean the same thing and the latter is kept for backward +compatibility) and `color.status.<slot>` configuration variables +to colorize its output. + + +Author +------ +Written by Linus Torvalds <torvalds@osdl.org> and +Junio C Hamano <junkio@cox.net>. + +Documentation +-------------- +Documentation by David Greaves, Junio C Hamano and the git-list <git@vger.kernel.org>. + +GIT +--- +Part of the gitlink:git[7] suite + |
