| 7bd7f280 | 6 | git-whatchanged - Show logs with difference each commit introduces |

| 9 | SYNOPSIS | |
| 10 | -------- | |
| b1889c36 | 11 | 'git whatchanged' <option>... |
| 3f971fc4 JH |
12 | |
| 13 | DESCRIPTION | |
| 14 | ----------- | |
| 15 | Shows commit logs and diff output each commit introduces. The | |
| 16 | command internally invokes 'git-rev-list' piped to | |
| 17 | 'git-diff-tree', and takes command line options for both of | |
| 18 | these commands. | |
| 19 | ||
| 20 | This manual page describes only the most frequently used options. | |
| 21 | ||
| 22 | ||
| 23 | OPTIONS | |
| 24 | ------- | |
| 25 | -p:: | |
| 26 | Show textual diffs, instead of the git internal diff | |
| 27 | output format that is useful only to tell the changed | |
| 28 | paths and their nature of changes. | |
| 29 | ||
| 70551726 | 30 | -<n>:: |
| 3f971fc4 JH |
31 | Limit output to <n> commits. |
| 32 | ||
| 33 | <since>..<until>:: | |
| 34 | Limit output to between the two named commits (bottom | |
| 35 | exclusive, top inclusive). | |
| 36 | ||
| 37 | -r:: | |
| 38 | Show git internal diff output, but for the whole tree, | |
| 39 | not just the top level. | |
| 40 | ||
| 15fad5f4 JH |
41 | -m:: |
| 42 | By default, differences for merge commits are not shown. | |
| 43 | With this flag, show differences to that commit from all | |
| 44 | of its parents. | |

| 46 | However, it is not very useful in general, although it | |
| 47 | *is* useful on a file-by-file basis. | |

| b1889c36 | 60 | git whatchanged --since="2 weeks ago" \-- gitk:: |
| bd663611 LT |
61 | |
