git-whatchanged(1)
==================
NAME
----
git-whatchanged - Show logs with difference each commit introduces
SYNOPSIS
--------
[verse]
'git whatchanged' <option>...
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 show the raw format diff output and to skip merges.
The command is kept primarily for historical reasons; fingers of
many people who learned Git long before `git log` was invented by
reading 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'
