| .SH "DESCRIPTION" |
| .sp |
| This command formats the lines of its standard input into a table with multiple columns\&. Each input line occupies one cell of the table\&. It is used internally by other git commands to format output into columns\&. |
| .SH "OPTIONS" |
| .PP |
| \-\-command=<name> |
| .RS 4 |
| Look up layout mode using configuration variable column\&.<name> and column\&.ui\&. |
| .RE |
| .PP |
| \-\-mode=<mode> |
| .RS 4 |
| Specify layout mode\&. See configuration variable column\&.ui for option syntax in |
| \fBgit-config\fR(1)\&. |
| .RE |
| .PP |
| \-\-raw\-mode=<n> |
| .RS 4 |
| Same as \-\-mode but take mode encoded as a number\&. This is mainly used by other commands that have already parsed layout mode\&. |
| .RE |
| .PP |
| \-\-width=<width> |
| .RS 4 |
| Specify the terminal width\&. By default |
| \fIgit column\fR |
| will detect the terminal width, or fall back to 80 if it is unable to do so\&. |
| .RE |
| .PP |
| \-\-indent=<string> |
| .RS 4 |
| String to be printed at the beginning of each line\&. |
| .RE |
| .PP |
| \-\-nl=<string> |
| .RS 4 |
| String to be printed at the end of each line, including newline character\&. |
| .RE |
| .PP |
| \-\-padding=<N> |
| .RS 4 |
| The number of spaces between columns\&. One space by default\&. |
| .RE |
