Encourage new users to use 'log' instead. These days, these commands are unified and just have different defaults. 'git log' only allowed you to view the log messages and no diffs when it was added in early June 2005. It was only in early April 2006 that the command learned to take diff options. Because of this, power users tended to use 'whatchanged' that already existed since mid May 2005 and supported diff options. Signed-off-by: Junio C Hamano <gitster@pobox.com>

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'
