git status Command
The git status
command is used to check if there have been any modifications to the files since the last commit.
$ git status
On branch master
Initial commit
Changes to be committed:
(use "git rm --cached <file>..." to unstage)
new file: README
new file: hello.php
Typically, we use the -s
parameter to get a concise output:
$ git status -s
AM README
A hello.php
The AM
status indicates that the file has been modified after being added to the staging area.
