git-ls-tree(1)
==============

NAME
----
git-ls-tree - Lists the contents of a tree object.


SYNOPSIS
--------
'git-ls-tree' [-d] [-r] [-z] <tree-ish> [paths...]

DESCRIPTION
-----------
Lists the contents of a tree object, like what "/bin/ls -a" does
in the current working directory.

OPTIONS
-------
<tree-ish>::
	Id of a tree-ish.

-d::
	show only the named tree entry itself, not its children

-r::
	recurse into sub-trees

-z::
	\0 line termination on output

paths::
	When paths are given, show them.  Otherwise implicitly
	uses the root level of the tree as the sole path argument.


Output Format
-------------
        <mode> SP <type> SP <object> TAB <file>

When `-z` option is not used, TAB, LF, and backslash characters
in pathnames are represented as `\t`, `\n`, and `\\`,
respectively.
