Unfortunately, some filesystems have inefficient <code>lstat(2)</code>. If your filesystem is one of them, you can set "assume unchanged" bit to paths you have not changed to cause Git not to do this check. Note that setting this bit on a path does not mean Git will check the contents of the file to see if it has changed&#8201;&#8212;&#8201;it makes Git to omit any checking and assume it has <strong>not</strong> changed. When you make changes to working tree files, you have to explicitly tell Git about it by dropping "assume unchanged" bit, either before or after you modify them.</p> </div> <div class="paragraph"> <p>In order to set "assume unchanged" bit, use <code>--assume-unchanged</code> option. To unset, use <code>--no-assume-unchanged</code>. To see which files have the "assume unchanged" bit set, use <code>git ls-files -v</code> (see <a href="git-ls-files.html">git-ls-files(1)</a>).</p> </div> <div class="paragraph"> <p>The command looks at <code>core.ignorestat</code> configuration variable. When this is true, paths updated with <code>git update-index paths...</code> and paths updated with other Git commands that update both index and working tree (e.g. <em>git apply --index</em>, <em>git checkout-index -u</em>, and <em>git read-tree -u</em>) are automatically marked as "assume unchanged". Note that "assume unchanged" bit is <strong>not</strong> set if <code>git update-index --refresh</code> finds the working tree file matches the index (use <code>git update-index --really-refresh</code> if you want to mark them as "assume unchanged").</p> </div> <div class="paragraph"> <p>Sometimes users confuse the assume-unchanged bit with the skip-worktree bit.
