Not quite; here's my line of reasoning. Let's cite the doc again: | · no - Show no untracked files. | · normal - Shows untracked files and directories. | · all - Also shows individual files in untracked | directories. While the formulation of the "normal" mode considered alone is indeed open to interpretation ("what does «and directories» *really* stand for?"), with the "all" mode thrown in, the picture is clear: if the "all" mode «Also shows individual files in untracked directories» then the other modes don't. On the other hand, that's my interpretation. If two other folks pereceive the doc the other way and get confused this well might indicate the problem with the doc. I'd suggest posting a dried out summary of our discussion on the main Git list [1] and suggest a documentation update. 1. https://gist.github.com/tfnico/4441562 -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "Git for human beings" group.

I would agree with Matthew on this. I understand the rationale to not show the files because of the possible very big directories... but the documentation clearly states "directories and files" On Friday, 27 November 2015 17:16:30 UTC+1, Kurt Vermeiren wrote: > > In our project we have 4 untracked files, for local development. > > Output of *git status *: > > Untracked files: > (use "git add ..." to include in what will be committed) > > sdb-batch-web/src/main/webapp/WEB-INF/jboss-web.xml > sdb-ear/src/main/application/ > sdb-services/src/main/webapp/WEB-INF/jboss-web.xml > sdb-web/src/main/webapp/WEB-INF/jboss-web.xml > > Note the second line, only the directory is shown. > > Output of *git status --untracked-files *: > > Untracked files: > (use "git add ..." to include in what will be committed) > > sdb-batch-web/src/main/webapp/WEB-INF/jboss-web.xml > sdb-ear/src/main/application/META-INF/jboss-deployment-structure.xml > sdb-services/src/main/webapp/WEB-INF/jboss-web.xml > sdb-web/src/main/webapp/WEB-INF/jboss-web.xml > > What is the difference between both commands, our believe is the output > should be identical. > > We are on 2.6.3, OS is Ubuntu 14.04 LTS > > Cheers > Kurt > > -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "Git for human beings" group.
