The documentation is using the historical mode for titles, which is a setext-style (i.e., two-line) section title. The issue with this mode is that starting block delimiters (e.g., `----`) can be confused with a section title when they are exactly the same length as the preceding line. In the original documentation, this is taken care of for English by the writer, but it is not the case for translations where these delimiters are hidden. A translator can generate a line that is exactly the same length as the following block delimiter, which leads to this line being considered as a title. To safeguard against this issue, add a blank line before and after block delimiters where block is at root level, else add a "+" line before block delimiters to link it to the preceding paragraph.

NAME
|
|
----
|
|
git-check-attr - Display gitattributes information
|
|
|
|
|
|
SYNOPSIS
|
|
--------
|
|
[verse]
|
|
'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::
|
|
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 pathnames from the standard input, one per line,
|
|
instead of from the command line.
|
|
|
|
-z::
|
|
The output format is modified to be machine-parsable.
|
|
If `--stdin` is also given, input paths are separated
|
|
with a NUL character instead of a linefeed character.
|
|
|
|
--source=<tree-ish>::
|
|
Check attributes against the specified tree-ish. It is common to
|
|
specify the source tree by naming a commit, branch, or tag associated
|
|
with it.
|
|
|
|
\--::
|
|
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
|
|
linkgit: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:
|
