💅 git-lfs-status 💅

okay so this is the man page for git-lfs-status — it lives in the git-lfs manual fam, and it's literally the glow-up your repo needs when you wanna know what's going on with your big files ✨

🌸 SYNOPSIS 🌸

git lfs status [<options>]

🦋 DESCRIPTION 🦋

bestie, this one shows you the paths of Git LFS objects that are in one of these three moods 👇

  • they have not been pushed to the Git LFS server. these are the large files that would get uploaded by git push 🚀
  • they have differences between the index file and the current HEAD commit. these are the large files that would get committed by git commit 📝
  • they have differences between the working tree and the index file. these are the files that could be staged using git add 🎀
⚠️ real talk: this command must be run in a non-bare repository. no bare repos, no exceptions, iykyk 💀

✨ OPTIONS ✨

  • -p, --porcelain — gives you the output in an easy-to-parse format for scripts 🤖. machine-readable, no fluff, slay
  • -j, --json — writes Git LFS file status information as JSON to STDOUT, if the command exits successfully 🎉. it's intended for interoperation with external tools. and heads up: if --porcelain is also provided, that option takes precedence 👑 (porcelain stays the main character)

💖 SEE ALSO 💖

and yeah, this is part of the git-lfs(1) suite — the whole friend group 🌈

k bye, go check your status bestie, ur files are gonna look iconic 💅✨
