        Generate a diffstat. By default, as much space as necessary
        will be used for the filename part, and the rest for the graph
        part. Maximum width defaults to terminal width, or 80 columns
        if not connected to a terminal, and can be overridden by
        <code>&lt;width&gt;</code>. The width of the filename part can be limited by
        giving another width <code>&lt;name-width&gt;</code> after a comma. The width
        of the graph part can be limited by using
        <code>--stat-graph-width=&lt;width&gt;</code> (affects all commands generating
        a stat graph) or by setting <code>diff.statGraphWidth=&lt;width&gt;</code>
        (does not affect <code>git format-patch</code>).
        By giving a third parameter <code>&lt;count&gt;</code>, you can limit the
        output to the first <code>&lt;count&gt;</code> lines, followed by <code>...</code> if
        there are more.

        Output the distribution of relative amount of changes for each

        passing it a comma separated list of parameters.
        The defaults are controlled by the <code>diff.dirstat</code> configuration

</dt>
<dd>
<p>
        Compute the dirstat numbers by counting the lines that have been
        removed from the source, or added to the destination. This ignores
        the amount of pure code movements within a file.  In other words,
        rearranging lines in a file is not counted as much as other changes.
        This is the default behavior when no parameter is given.
</p>
</dd>
<dt class="hdlist1">
<code>lines</code>
</dt>
<dd>
<p>
        Compute the dirstat numbers by doing the regular line-based diff
        analysis, and summing the removed/added line counts. (For binary
        files, count 64-byte chunks instead, since binary files have no
        natural concept of lines). This is a more expensive <code>--dirstat</code>
        behavior than the <code>changes</code> behavior, but it does count rearranged
        lines within a file as much as other changes. The resulting output
        is consistent with what you get from the other <code>--*stat</code> options.
</p>
</dd>
<dt class="hdlist1">
<code>files</code>
</dt>
<dd>
<p>
        Compute the dirstat numbers by counting the number of files changed.
        Each changed file counts equally in the dirstat analysis. This is
        the computationally cheapest <code>--dirstat</code> behavior, since it does
        not have to look at the file contents at all.
</p>
</dd>
<dt class="hdlist1">
<code>cumulative</code>

<p>
        Count changes in a child directory for the parent directory as well.

        Break complete rewrite changes into pairs of delete and
        create. This serves two purposes:
</p>
<div class="paragraph"><p>It affects the way a change that amounts to a total rewrite of a file
not as a series of deletion and insertion mixed together with a very
few lines that happen to match textually as the context, but as a
single deletion of everything old followed by a single insertion of
everything new, and the number <code>m</code> controls this aspect of the -B
option (defaults to 60%). <code>-B/70%</code> specifies that less than 30% of the
original should remain in the result for Git to consider it a total
rewrite (i.e. otherwise the resulting patch will be a series of
deletion and insertion mixed together with context lines).</p></div>
<div class="paragraph"><p>When used with -M, a totally-rewritten file is also considered as the
source of a rename (usually -M only considers a file that disappeared
as the source of a rename), and the number <code>n</code> controls this aspect of
the -B option (defaults to 50%). <code>-B20%</code> specifies that a change with
addition and deletion compared to 20% or more of the file&#8217;s size are
eligible for being picked up as a possible source of a rename to

        If <code>n</code> is specified, it is a threshold on the similarity
        index (i.e. amount of addition/deletions compared to the
        file&#8217;s size). For example, <code>-M90%</code> means Git should consider a
        delete/add pair to be a rename if more than 90% of the file
        hasn&#8217;t changed.  Without a <code>%</code> sign, the number is to be read as
        a fraction, with a decimal point before it.  I.e., <code>-M5</code> becomes
        0.5, and is thus the same as <code>-M50%</code>.  Similarly, <code>-M05</code> is
        the same as <code>-M5%</code>.  To limit detection to exact renames, use

        For performance reasons, by default, <code>-C</code> option finds copies only

        inspect unmodified files as candidates for the source of

        conversion, the resulting diff is suitable for human
        consumption, but cannot be applied. For this reason, textconv
        filters are enabled by default only for <a href="git-diff.html">git-diff(1)</a> and
        <a href="git-log.html">git-log(1)</a>, but not for <a href="git-format-patch.html">git-format-patch(1)</a> or

<p>
        Ignore changes to submodules in the diff generation. &lt;when&gt; can be
        either "none", "untracked", "dirty" or "all", which is the default.
        Using "none" will consider the submodule modified when it either contains
        untracked or modified files or its HEAD differs from the commit recorded
        in the superproject and can be used to override any settings of the
        <em>ignore</em> option in <a href="git-config.html">git-config(1)</a> or <a href="gitmodules.html">gitmodules(5)</a>. When
        "untracked" is used submodules are not considered dirty when they only
        contain untracked content (but they are still scanned for modified
        content). Using "dirty" ignores all changes to the work tree of submodules,
        only changes to the commits stored in the superproject are shown (this was
        the behavior until 1.7.0). Using "all" hides all changes to submodules.

<div class="paragraph"><p>The similarity index is the percentage of unchanged lines, and
the dissimilarity index is the percentage of changed lines.  It

similarity index value of 100% is thus reserved for two equal
files, while 100% dissimilarity means that no line from the old
file made it into the new one.</p></div>
<div class="paragraph"><p>The index line includes the SHA-1 checksum before and after the change.
The &lt;mode&gt; is included if the file mode does not change; otherwise,

<li>
<p>
Chunk header format is modified to prevent people from
     accidentally feeding it to <code>patch -p1</code>. Combined diff format
     was created for review of merge commit changes, and was not
     meant for apply. The change is similar to the change in the

</p>
<div class="literalblock">

header for combined diff format.</p></div>

<div class="paragraph"><p>Unlike the traditional <em>unified</em> diff format, which shows two
files A and B with a single column that has <code>-</code> (minus&#8201;&#8212;&#8201;appears in A but removed in B), <code>+</code> (plus&#8201;&#8212;&#8201;missing in A but
added to B), or <code>" "</code> (space&#8201;&#8212;&#8201;unchanged) prefix, this format
compares two or more files file1, file2,&#8230; with one file X, and
shows how X differs from each of fileN.  One column for each of
fileN is prepended to the output line to note how X&#8217;s line is
different from it.</p></div>
<div class="paragraph"><p>A <code>-</code> character in the column N means that the line appears in
fileN but it does not appear in the result.  A <code>+</code> character
in the column N means that the line appears in the result,
and fileN does not have that line (in other words, the line was
added, from the point of view of that parent).</p></div>
<div class="paragraph"><p>In the above example output, the function signature was changed
from both files (hence two <code>-</code> removals from both file1 and
file2, plus <code>++</code> to mean one line that was added does not appear
in either file1 nor file2).  Also eight other lines are the same
from file1 but do not appear in file2 (hence prefixed with <code>+</code>).</p></div>
<div class="paragraph"><p>When shown by <code>git diff-tree -c</code>, it compares the parents of a
merge commit with the merge result (i.e. file1..fileN are the
parents).  When shown by <code>git diff-files -c</code>, it compares the
two unresolved merge parents with the working tree file
(i.e. file1 is stage 2 aka "our version", file2 is stage 3 aka
"their version").</p></div>

<code>-p</code>, and are meant for human consumption.</p></div>
<div class="paragraph"><p>When showing a change that involves a rename or a copy, <code>--stat</code> output
formats the pathnames compactly by combining common prefix and suffix of
