How can I make git show a list of the files that are being tracked?

Question

Using command line git, how can I make git show a list of the files that are being tracked in the repository?

Accepted Answer

To list all the files currently being tracked under the branch `master`, use `ls-tree`:

```
git ls-tree -r master --name-only
```

To list all files that have ever existed (i.e. including deleted files):

```
git log --pretty=format: --name-only --diff-filter=A | sort - | sed '/^$/d'
```
