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

NAME
       git-check-attr - Display gitattributes information

SYNOPSIS
       git check-attr attr... [--] pathname...
       git check-attr --stdin [-z] 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
       --stdin
	   Read file names from stdin instead of from the command-line.

       -z
	   Only meaningful with --stdin; 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 not supplied, only the first argument
	   will be treated as an attribute.

OUTPUT
       The output is of the form: <path> COLON SP <attribute> COLON SP <info>
       LF

       <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.

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 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
