git-whatchanged

Show commit logs with file-level diff information

TLDR

Show commit logs with diffs

$ git whatchanged

Limit output

Show since date

SYNOPSIS

git whatchanged [options] [paths...]

git whatchanged shows logs with the difference each commit introduces. It is essentially equivalent to `git log --raw --no-merges`, making it easier to see which files were affected by each commit.

PARAMETERS

-n num

Limit number of commits.

--stat

Show diffstat.

--since date

Commits since date.

--until date

Commits until date.

-p

Show patch.

INSTALL

sudo apt install git

sudo dnf install git

sudo pacman -S git

sudo apk add git

sudo zypper install git

brew install git

nix profile install nixpkgs#git

CAVEATS

This command is deprecated and scheduled for removal in a future Git release. Use `git log --raw` instead. When limiting output to a path, add `--` before the path to avoid ambiguity with branch names, e.g. `git whatchanged -- [file]`.
