git-check-attr:tldr:72eba
The command "git check-attr --all ${filename1} ${filename2}" is used in Git to check and display the values of attributes set for the specified files.
Here's a breakdown of the command:
-
"git check-attr" is the main command that is used to check the attributes of files in a Git repository.
-
"--all" is an option that is passed to the command to display all attributes of the specified files. This means that it will show the values of all attributes that have been set for the given files.
-
"${filename1} ${filename2}" refers to the filenames or paths of the files for which you want to check the attributes. You can provide multiple file names or paths, separated by spaces, to check attributes for multiple files in a single command.
When you run this command, Git will display the attributes and their values for the specified files. Attributes in Git are usually set using a gitattributes file or pattern matching rules, and they can control various aspects of how Git behaves for those files, such as line-ending normalization, merging strategies, whitespace handling, etc.
