Note that the usage is subtly different, -though - 'paths' denote just a list of patterns to match, e.g. so specifying -directory name (without '-r') will behave differently, and order of the -arguments does not matter. +in the current working directory. Note that: + + - the behaviour is slightly different from that of "/bin/ls" in that the + 'paths' denote just a list of patterns to match, e.g. so specifying + directory name (without '-r') will behave differently, and order of the + arguments does not matter. + + - the behaviour is similar to that of "/bin/ls" in that the 'paths' is + taken as relative to the current working directory. E.g. when you are + in a directory 'sub' that has a directory 'dir', you can run 'git + ls-tree -r HEAD dir' to list the contents of the tree (that is + 'sub/dir' in 'HEAD'). You don't want to give a tree that is not at the + root level (e.g. 'git ls-tree -r HEAD:sub dir') in this case, as that + would result in asking for 'sub/sub/dir' in the 'HEAD' commit.
