# List of files committed to a git branch

* Have you tried git ls-tree?
```
git ls-tree --name-only -r <branch_name>
```
--name-only gives you just the file names. -r recurses into sub directories.

* If you want the name of the sub-directory listed before recursing into it, add -t to the argument list.
```
git ls-tree --name-only $branch $directory/
```
for a list of a specific directory

* If your branch was derived from master you can use this command to list all new files that where added after branching:
```
git diff master...new-branch --name-status --diff-filter=A
```
Available filters for --diff-filter are: Added (A), Copied (C), Deleted (D), Modified (M), Renamed (R)

* The `git ls-files` command lists all the files that exist in the latest commit on the current branch.

* `git diff --name-only` to show a list of the files that are different between any two arbitrary commits.

* `git log --name-status` will give the names and status of changed files in each commit
