Hi,
I'm unsure it exists already, but "git status" doesn't display the tracked files. Would it make sense to have those reported with a "git status -v" (for verbose)? (You know: I'm thinking about "cvs status"...)
Regards, Ulrich

"git status" is basically "git commit --dry-run", which is different from "cvs/svn/hg status".
"git diff --name-status" gives output similar to those.
"git ls-files" allows to list all tracked files.

OK, so many commands to learn.... Still shouldn't "git status --help" be able to display some help text (other than "man page not found")?

It is. You, or your distro, miss-installed it (maybe "make install-doc" ?)
