Actually, it's already available (since a few weeks in master IIRC, not sure whether it's in the latest release), as git ls-files --exclude-standard -o The --exclude-standard tells git ls-files to read .gitignore and friends as most commands do, and -o means "show 'other' files". Older gits didn't have the --exclude-standard, so you had to say --exclude-from=.git/info/exclude --exclude-per-directory=.gitignore (or stg like that) instead. -- Matthieu - To unsubscribe from this list: send the line "unsubscribe git" in the body of a message to majordomo@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx More majordomo info at http://vger.kernel.org/majordomo-info.html
