With this flag, the user can choose to filter untracked files from
the
status output. This can be used to either speed up the status
output, as
the untracked files are not fetched at all, or to just cleanup the
output without using gitignore.
"git diff -r --name-status; git diff --cached -r --name-status" is
not enough?
That line will result in duplicate entries, if files are staged, and
the output of git-status is neater (but longer) in my opinion.
That is because it _is_ two times different: between working directory
and the index, and between index and HEAD. git-status _will_ show you
the same for the same reason.
Besides, why do you want to hide this "duplication"? It shows how the
matters really are.
git status --only-tracked, does not hide the fact that there are
files staged for commit, and modified files relative to the index.
The difference is, that it shows them in a clean way. Sure you could
make a script like:
echo "Changes to be committed:"; git diff --cached -r --name-status;
echo "Changed but not updates:"; git diff -r --name-status
But that is quite long, for a quick look at the state, without any
untracked files.
Besides, it looks like you are using "friendly" where you actually
wanted to say "I consider you too dumb to know what happens". Someone
may feel offended
I don't see where I consider users dumb, but hey, I'm sorry if I made
someone feel offended.
