SYNOPSIS

dolt blame [options] table [column]

DESCRIPTION

dolt blame shows what revision and author last modified each row in a table. Similar to git blame for code, it traces data changes back to their source commits.
The output shows the commit hash, author, and timestamp for the last modification of each row. This helps track when and by whom specific data changes were made.
dolt blame is valuable for auditing data changes and understanding the history of specific records in version-controlled databases.

PARAMETERS

TABLE

Table name to examine.
COLUMN
Optional specific column.
--help
Display help information.

CAVEATS

Large tables may produce extensive output. Only shows last modification, not full history. Performance depends on table size and history depth.

HISTORY

dolt blame is part of Dolt, bringing Git's blame functionality to database tables. It supports the data auditing and accountability features that version-controlled databases enable.
