DESCRIPTION
|
|
|
|
|
-----------
|
2006-12-14 11:31:05 +01:00
|
|
|
Shows one or more objects (blobs, trees, tags and commits).
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
For commits it shows the log message and textual diff. It also
|
|
|
|
|
presents the merge commit in a special format as produced by
|
2010-01-10 00:33:00 +01:00
|
|
|
'git diff-tree --cc'.
|
2006-12-14 11:31:05 +01:00
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
For tags, it shows the tag message and the referenced objects.
|
|
|
|
|
|
2010-01-10 00:33:00 +01:00
|
|
|
For trees, it shows the names (equivalent to 'git ls-tree'
|
2006-12-14 11:31:05 +01:00
|
|
|
with \--name-only).
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
For plain blobs, it shows the plain contents.
|

|
|
|
|
2010-01-10 00:33:00 +01:00
|
|
|
The command takes options applicable to the 'git diff-tree' command to
|
2007-02-09 00:22:21 +01:00
|
|
|
control how the changes the commit introduces are shown.

EXAMPLES

|
|
--------

docs: put listed example commands in backticks
Many examples of git command invocation are given in asciidoc listing
blocks, which makes them monospaced and avoids further interpretation of
special characters. Some manpages make a list of examples, like:
git foo::
Run git foo.
git foo -q::
Use the "-q" option.
to quickly show many variants. However, they can sometimes be hard to
read, because they are shown in a proportional-width font (so, for
example, seeing the difference between "-- foo" and "--foo" can be
difficult).
This patch puts all such examples into backticks, which gives the
equivalent formatting to a listing block (i.e., monospaced and without
character interpretation).
As a bonus, this also fixes an example in the git-push manpage, in which
"git push origin :::" was accidentally considered a newly-indented list,
and not a list item with "git push origin :" in it.
