GIT-CHECK-ATTR(1)		  Git Manual		     GIT-CHECK-ATTR(1)

NAME
       git-check-attr - Display gitattributes information

SYNOPSIS
       git check-attr [-a | --all | attr...] [--] pathname...
       git check-attr --stdin [-z] [-a | --all | attr...] < <list-of-paths>

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
	   List all attributes that are associated with the specified paths.
	   If this option is used, then unspecified attributes will not be
	   included in the output.

       --cached
	   Consider .gitattributes in the index only, ignoring the working
	   tree.

       --stdin
	   Read file names from stdin instead of from the command-line.

       -z
	   The output format is modified to be machine-parseable. If --stdin
	   is also given, input paths are separated with a NUL character
	   instead of a linefeed character.

       --
	   Interpret all preceding arguments as attributes and all following
	   arguments as path names.

       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
	   when the attribute is not defined for the path.

       unset
	   when the attribute is defined as false.

       set
	   when the attribute is defined as true.

       <value>
	   when a value has been assigned to the attribute.

       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

       ·   Listing a single attribute:

	   $ git check-attr diff org/example/MyClass.java
	   org/example/MyClass.java: diff: java

       ·   Listing multiple attributes for a file:

	   $ 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

       ·   Listing all attributes for a file:

	   $ git check-attr --all -- org/example/MyClass.java
	   org/example/MyClass.java: diff: java
	   org/example/MyClass.java: myAttr: set

       ·   Listing an attribute for multiple files:

	   $ git check-attr myAttr -- org/example/MyClass.java org/example/NoMyAttr.java
	   org/example/MyClass.java: myAttr: set
	   org/example/NoMyAttr.java: myAttr: unspecified

       ·   Not all values are equally unambiguous:

	   $ git check-attr caveat README
	   README: caveat: unspecified
