You can use git diff --name-status, that will show you files that where added, modified and deleted.
Add All Files using Git Add. The easiest way to add all files to your Git repository is to use the “git add” command followed by the “-A” option for “all”. In this case, the new (or untracked), deleted and modified files will be added to your Git staging area.
To check the staged changes, run the git diff command along with --staged option.
To exit this you can use: :q for exit; :h for help; Note: if you don't want to read the output in pager you can use an ENV variable GIT_PAGER to cat or you need to set core.
The --diff-filter option works with both diff and log.
I use --diff-filter=M a lot which restricts diff outputs to only content modifications.
To detect renames and copies and use these in the diff output, you can use -M and -C respectively, together with the R and C options to --diff-filter.
--diff-filter=[(A|C|D|M|R|T|U|X|B)…[*]]Select only files that are Added (A), Copied (C), Deleted (D), Modified (M), Renamed (R), have their type (i.e. regular file, symlink, submodule, …) changed (T), are Unmerged (U), are Unknown (X), or have had their pairing Broken (B). Any combination of the filter characters (including none) can be used.
When * (All-or-none) is added to the combination, all paths are selected if there is any file that matches other criteria in the comparison; if there is no file that matches other criteria, nothing is selected.
Also, these upper-case letters can be downcased to exclude. E.g. --diff-filter=ad excludes added and deleted paths.
Example: show only added , changed, modified files exclude deleted files:
git diff --diff-filter=ACM
