10SYNOPSIS
11--------
12'git status'
13
14DESCRIPTION
15-----------
16Examines paths in the working tree that has changes unrecorded
17to the index file, and changes between the index file and the
18current HEAD commit. The former paths are what you _could_
19commit by running 'git-update-cache' before running 'git
20commit', and the latter paths are what you _would_ commit by
21running 'git commit'.
22
23If there is no path that is different between the index file and
24the current HEAD commit, the command exits with non-zero
25status.
