git-scope

Overview

git-scope is a Git status/commit inspection CLI that renders a change list and directory tree, with optional file-content printing for worktree, index, or commits. Output is colorized by default; use --no-color or NO_COLOR to disable color.

Usage

Usage:
  git-scope <command> [args]

Commands:
  tracked [prefix...]    Show files tracked by Git (prefix filter optional)
  staged                Show files staged for commit
  unstaged              Show modified files not yet staged
  all                   Show staged + unstaged changes
  untracked             Show untracked files
  commit <id>           Show commit details (use -p to print content)
  help                  Show help

Options:
  -p, --print            Print file contents where applicable
  --no-color             Disable ANSI colors (also via NO_COLOR)

Commands

  • tracked [prefix...]: List tracked files. Use -p, --print to emit worktree contents.
  • staged: List staged changes. Use -p, --print to emit index contents.
  • unstaged: List unstaged changes. Use -p, --print to emit worktree contents.
  • all: List staged + unstaged changes. Use -p, --print to emit index and worktree contents when both exist.
  • untracked: List untracked files. Use -p, --print to emit worktree contents.
  • commit <commit-ish>: Show commit metadata and file list. Options: -p, --print and -P, --parent <n> for merge commits.
  • help: Show help output.

Exit codes

  • 0: Success and help output.
  • 1: Operational errors.

Dependencies

  • git is required for all commands.
  • tree is optional; missing or unsupported versions emit a warning and skip tree output.
  • file is optional; when unavailable, binary detection falls back to content inspection.

Environment

  • NO_COLOR: Disable ANSI colors.
  • GIT_SCOPE_PROGRESS: Set to 1, true, yes, or on to enable a progress bar while printing file contents.
