GIT: Changed File Names With Certain Extension

When 开发者_JAVA技巧I want to get a list of the files I have changed so for, I use this command:

git diff --name-only

But many times, I get many files that I don't care about right now. For example, if I am uploading to my PHP server, I usually just want the list of .php files. I tried this:

git diff --name-only **/*.php

But unfortunately, it only shows me files in the first sub-directory. So looks like it is not interpreting the double star as recursive.

Any idea?

just leverage grep:

git diff --name-only | grep .php

git diff --name-only '**/*.php'

(note the quotes)

Edit

Most POSIX shells don't support that pattern. From your comment, I gather that git doesn't either (I cannot test right now).

A workaround could be

git diff --name-only $(find . -name \*.php)

Use quotes to get git to perform the filter:

git diff --name-only "*.php"
