I'm trying to get rid of the following input using sed:

branch
branch

not
"git
"git

That is an empty line, the term branch, not and "git. However the following line does not work:

git status 2>&1 | awk 'print $2' | sed 's/^$//g' | sed 's/^branch||^not||^changes||^"git//g'

How can I write this line correctly to get rid of all of this at once?

The correct way of doing what you are trying to achieve:

git status --porcelain | sed s/^...//

From git help status:

--porcelain[=]

Give the output in an easy-to-parse format for scripts. This is similar to the short output.

And here is what you want to use with your commands:

Using sed:

... | sed -r '/(^"git|^branch|^not|^$)/d'

Using grep:

... | grep -Ev '^branch|^not|^"git|^$'

Which returns file names from your git and awk command.
