git-status: Don't show untracked files in the output.
$ git status --untracked-files=no
try on your machine

The command "git status --untracked-files=no" is used to display the current status of the git repository with a specific option.

"git status" is a command to check the status of your local repository. It provides information about the changes made to your files, including modified, staged, and untracked files.

The "--untracked-files" option modifies the behavior of the "git status" command by specifying how to display untracked files. By default, if there are untracked files in your repository, they will be shown in the output.

However, when you append "--untracked-files=no" to the command, it will hide untracked files from the status output. It means that the git status command will only show information about modified and staged files, and ignore any untracked files, not including them in the output.

This explanation was created by an AI. In most cases those are correct. But please always be careful and never run a command you are not sure if it is safe.
