| git-whatchanged(1) |
| ================== |
| |
| NAME |
| ---- |
| git-whatchanged - Show logs with differences each commit introduces |
| |
| |
| SYNOPSIS |
| -------- |
| [synopsis] |
| git whatchanged <option>... |
| |
| WARNING |
| ------- |
| `git whatchanged` has been deprecated and is scheduled for removal in |
| a future version of Git, as it is merely `git log` with different |
| default; `whatchanged` is not even shorter to type than `log --raw`. |
| |
| DESCRIPTION |
| ----------- |
| |
| Shows commit logs and diff output each commit introduces. |
| |
| New users are encouraged to use linkgit:git-log[1] instead. The |
| `whatchanged` command is essentially the same as linkgit:git-log[1] |
| but defaults to showing the raw format diff output and skipping merges. |
| |
| The command is primarily kept for historical reasons; fingers of |
| many people who learned Git long before `git log` was invented by |
| reading the Linux kernel mailing list are trained to type it. |
| |
| |
| Examples |
| -------- |
| `git whatchanged -p v2.6.12.. include/scsi drivers/scsi`:: |
| |
| Show as patches the commits since version 'v2.6.12' that changed |
| any file in the include/scsi or drivers/scsi subdirectories |
| |
| `git whatchanged --since="2 weeks ago" -- gitk`:: |
| |
| Show the changes during the last two weeks to the file 'gitk'. |
| The "--" is necessary to avoid confusion with the *branch* named |
| 'gitk' |
