Hey, is it possible to get the output of

pants fmt

more machine readable? I would like to get only the modified files as an output, but I couldn't find any cli switch on output format

Individual linters may have machine-readable outputs that you can set via option, but there is no generic way to get that list at the Pants level

For a bit more context: what are you trying to do with the list of modified files?

I want to execute this in a pipeline and only add the modified files with

git add

to the changelist. I'm currently using

git add -u

but I want to avoid adding other modified files and specifically target files modified by

pants fmt

Interesting use case
