René's URL Explorer Experiment

Let's say I have a new folder with three new files in it.
\n
When I use git status it will show like this:
\n
MyProject/New Folder/\n
\n
But when I use GitPython's repo.untracked_files it will show like this:
\n
MyProject/New Folder/file_a.txt\nMyProject/New Folder/file_b.txt\nMyProject/New Folder/file_c.txt\n
\n
Is there a way to get the same result as the git status version?

Hello, thanks for the response.

For the time being I Implemented a workaround that calls git directly.
\nI am not sure if this is useful for you, but here is the code:
\n
import subprocess\ncommand = [\"git\", \"ls-files\", \"--others\", \"--directory\", \"--exclude-standard\", \"--no-empty-directory\"]\nprocess = subprocess.Popen(command, stdout=subprocess.PIPE, stderr=subprocess.PIPE)\nuntracked_files_and_folders = [u.decode().strip() for u in process.stdout]\n
