SYNOPSIS

git commits-since date

DESCRIPTION

git commits-since is a convenience command from git-extras that displays commits made since a specified date. It simplifies the common task of reviewing recent activity by accepting natural language date expressions like "yesterday", "last week", "2 days ago", or specific dates like "2024-01-01".
The command wraps git log with appropriate date filtering, providing more readable output than manually constructing git log --since commands. It shows commit hashes, authors, dates, and messages for all commits in the current branch since the specified time.
This is particularly useful for stand-ups, weekly reviews, generating changelogs, or checking what changed since deploying a release. The natural language date parsing makes it more intuitive than remembering git log's date format syntax.
