| <h2>DESCRIPTION</h2> | |
| <div class="sectionbody"> | |
| <p>Lists commit objects in reverse chronological order starting at the | |
| given commit(s), taking ancestry relationship into account. This is | |
| useful to produce human-readable log output.</p> | |
| <p>Commits which are stated with a preceding <em>^</em> cause listing to | |
| stop at that point. Their parents are implied. Thus the following | |
| command:</p> | |
| <div class="listingblock"> | |
| <div class="content"> | |
| <pre><tt> $ git-rev-list foo bar ^baz</tt></pre> | |
| </div></div> | |
| <p>means "list all the commits which are included in <em>foo</em> and <em>bar</em>, but | |
| not in <em>baz</em>".</p> | |
| <p>A special notation "<em><commit1></em>..<em><commit2></em>" can be used as a | |
| short-hand for "^<em><commit1></em> <em><commit2></em>". For example, either of | |
| the following may be used interchangeably:</p> | |
| <div class="listingblock"> | |
| <div class="content"> | |
| <pre><tt> $ git-rev-list origin..HEAD | |
| $ git-rev-list HEAD ^origin</tt></pre> | |
| </div></div> | |
| <p>Another special notation is "<em><commit1></em>…<em><commit2></em>" which is useful | |
| for merges. The resulting set of commits is the symmetric difference | |
| between the two operands. The following two commands are equivalent:</p> | |
| <div class="listingblock"> | |
| <div class="content"> | |
| <pre><tt> $ git-rev-list A B --not $(git-merge-base --all A B) | |
| $ git-rev-list A...B</tt></pre> | |
| </div></div> | |
| <p><a href="git-rev-list.html">git-rev-list(1)</a> is a very essential git program, since it | |
| provides the ability to build and traverse commit ancestry graphs. For | |
| this reason, it has a lot of different options that enables it to be | |
| used by commands as different as <a href="git-bisect.html">git-bisect(1)</a> and | |
| <a href="git-repack.html">git-repack(1)</a>.</p> | |
| </div> | |
| <h2>OPTIONS</h2> | |
| <div class="sectionbody"> | |
| <h3>Commit Formatting</h3> | |
| <p>Using these options, <a href="git-rev-list.html">git-rev-list(1)</a> will act similar to the | |
| more specialized family of commit log tools: <a href="git-log.html">git-log(1)</a>, | |
| <a href="git-show.html">git-show(1)</a>, and <a href="git-whatchanged.html">git-whatchanged(1)</a></p> | |
| <dl> | |
| <dt> | |
| --pretty[=<em><format></em>] | |
| </dt> | |
| <dd> | |
| <p> | |
| Pretty-print the contents of the commit logs in a given format, | |
| where <em><format></em> can be one of <em>oneline</em>, <em>short</em>, <em>medium</em>, | |
| <em>full</em>, <em>fuller</em>, <em>email</em>, <em>raw</em> and <em>format:<string></em>. | |
| When omitted, the format defaults to <em>medium</em>. | |
| </p> | |
| </dd> | |
| <dt> | |
| --abbrev-commit | |
| </dt> | |
| <dd> | |
| <p> | |
| Instead of showing the full 40-byte hexadecimal commit object | |
| name, show only handful hexdigits prefix. Non default number of | |
| digits can be specified with "--abbrev=<n>" (which also modifies | |
| diff output, if it is displayed). | |
| </p> | |
| <p>This should make "--pretty=oneline" a whole lot more readable for | |
| people using 80-column terminals.</p> | |
| </dd> | |
| <dt> | |
| --encoding[=<encoding>] | |
| </dt> | |
| <dd> | |
| <p> | |
| The commit objects record the encoding used for the log message | |
| in their encoding header; this option can be used to tell the | |
| command to re-code the commit log message in the encoding | |
| preferred by the user. For non plumbing commands this | |
| defaults to UTF-8. | |
| </p> | |
| </dd> | |
| <dt> | |
| --relative-date | |
| </dt> | |
| <dd> | |
| <p> | |
| Synonym for <tt>--date=relative</tt>. | |
| </p> | |
| </dd> | |
| <dt> | |
| --date={relative,local,default,iso,rfc} | |
| </dt> | |
| <dd> | |
| <p> | |
| Only takes effect for dates shown in human-readable format, such | |
| as when using "--pretty". | |
| </p> | |
| <p><tt>--date=relative</tt> shows dates relative to the current time, | |
| e.g. "2 hours ago".</p> | |
| <p><tt>--date=local</tt> shows timestamps in user's local timezone.</p> | |
| <p><tt>--date=iso</tt> (or <tt>--date=iso8601</tt>) shows timestamps in ISO 8601 format.</p> | |
| <p><tt>--date=rfc</tt> (or <tt>--date=rfc2822</tt>) shows timestamps in RFC 2822 | |
| format, often found in E-mail messages.</p> | |
| <p><tt>--date=short</tt> shows only date but not time, in <tt>YYYY-MM-DD</tt> format.</p> | |
| <p><tt>--date=default</tt> shows timestamps in the original timezone | |
| (either committer's or author's).</p> | |
| </dd> | |
| <dt> | |
| --header | |
| </dt> | |
| <dd> | |
| <p> | |
| Print the contents of the commit in raw-format; each record is | |
| separated with a NUL character. | |
| </p> | |
| </dd> | |
| <dt> | |
| --parents | |
| </dt> | |
| <dd> | |
| <p> | |
| Print the parents of the commit. | |
| </p> | |
| </dd> | |
| <dt> | |
| --timestamp | |
| </dt> | |
| <dd> | |
| <p> | |
| Print the raw commit timestamp. | |
| </p> | |
| </dd> | |
| <dt> | |
| --left-right | |
| </dt> | |
| <dd> | |
| <p> | |
| Mark which side of a symmetric diff a commit is reachable from. | |
| Commits from the left side are prefixed with <tt><</tt> and those from | |
| the right with <tt>></tt>. If combined with <tt>--boundary</tt>, those | |
| commits are prefixed with <tt>-</tt>. | |
| </p> | |
| <p>For example, if you have this topology:</p> | |
| <div class="listingblock"> | |
| <div class="content"> | |
| <pre><tt> y---b---b branch B | |
| / \ / | |
| / . | |
| / / \ | |
| o---x---a---a branch A</tt></pre> | |
| </div></div> | |
| <p>you would get an output line this:</p> | |
| <div class="listingblock"> | |
| <div class="content"> | |
| <pre><tt> $ git rev-list --left-right --boundary --pretty=oneline A...B | |
| >bbbbbbb... 3rd on b | |
| >bbbbbbb... 2nd on b | |
| <aaaaaaa... 3rd on a | |
| <aaaaaaa... 2nd on a | |
| -yyyyyyy... 1st on b | |
| -xxxxxxx... 1st on a</tt></pre> | |
| </div></div> | |
| </dd> | |
| </dl> | |
| <h3>Diff Formatting</h3> | |
| <p>Below are listed options that control the formatting of diff output. | |
| Some of them are specific to <a href="git-rev-list.html">git-rev-list(1)</a>, however other diff | |
| options may be given. See <a href="git-diff-files.html">git-diff-files(1)</a> for more options.</p> | |
| <dl> | |
| <dt> | |
| -c | |
| </dt> | |
| <dd> | |
| <p> | |
| This flag changes the way a merge commit is displayed. It shows | |
| the differences from each of the parents to the merge result | |
| simultaneously instead of showing pairwise diff between a parent | |
| and the result one at a time. Furthermore, it lists only files | |
| which were modified from all parents. | |
| </p> | |
| </dd> | |
| <dt> | |
| --cc | |
| </dt> | |
| <dd> | |
| <p> | |
| This flag implies the <em>-c</em> options and further compresses the | |
| patch output by omitting hunks that show differences from only | |
| one parent, or show the same change from all but one parent for | |
| an Octopus merge. | |
| </p> | |
| </dd> | |
| <dt> | |
| -r | |
| </dt> | |
| <dd> | |
| <p> | |
| Show recursive diffs. | |
| </p> | |
| </dd> | |
| <dt> | |
| -t | |
| </dt> | |
| <dd> | |
| <p> | |
| Show the tree objects in the diff output. This implies <em>-r</em>. | |
| </p> | |
| </dd> | |
| </dl> | |
| <h3>Commit Limiting</h3> | |
| <p>Besides specifying a range of commits that should be listed using the | |
| special notations explained in the description, additional commit | |
| limiting may be applied.</p> | |
| <dl> | |
| <dt> | |
| -n <em>number</em>, --max-count=<em>number</em> | |
| </dt> | |
| <dd> | |
| <p> | |
| Limit the number of commits output. | |
| </p> | |
| </dd> | |
| <dt> | |
| --skip=<em>number</em> | |
| </dt> | |
| <dd> | |
| <p> | |
| Skip <em>number</em> commits before starting to show the commit output. | |
| </p> | |
| </dd> | |
| <dt> | |
| --since=<em>date</em>, --after=<em>date</em> | |
| </dt> | |
| <dd> | |
| <p> | |
| Show commits more recent than a specific date. | |
| </p> | |
| </dd> | |
| <dt> | |
| --until=<em>date</em>, --before=<em>date</em> | |
| </dt> | |
| <dd> | |
| <p> | |
| Show commits older than a specific date. | |
| </p> | |
| </dd> | |
| <dt> | |
| --max-age=<em>timestamp</em>, --min-age=<em>timestamp</em> | |
| </dt> | |
| <dd> | |
| <p> | |
| Limit the commits output to specified time range. | |
| </p> | |
| </dd> | |
| <dt> | |
| --author=<em>pattern</em>, --committer=<em>pattern</em> | |
| </dt> | |
| <dd> | |
| <p> | |
| Limit the commits output to ones with author/committer | |
| header lines that match the specified pattern (regular expression). | |
| </p> | |
| </dd> | |
| <dt> | |
| --grep=<em>pattern</em> | |
| </dt> | |
| <dd> | |
| <p> | |
| Limit the commits output to ones with log message that | |
| matches the specified pattern (regular expression). | |
| </p> | |
| </dd> | |
| <dt> | |
| -i, --regexp-ignore-case | |
| </dt> | |
| <dd> | |
| <p> | |
| Match the regexp limiting patterns without regard to letters case. | |
| </p> | |
| </dd> | |
| <dt> | |
| -E, --extended-regexp | |
| </dt> | |
| <dd> | |
| <p> | |
| Consider the limiting patterns to be extended regular expressions | |
| instead of the default basic regular expressions. | |
| </p> | |
| </dd> | |
| <dt> | |
| --remove-empty | |
| </dt> | |
| <dd> | |
| <p> | |
| Stop when a given path disappears from the tree. | |
| </p> | |
| </dd> | |
| <dt> | |
| --full-history | |
| </dt> | |
| <dd> | |
| <p> | |
| Show also parts of history irrelevant to current state of a given | |
| path. This turns off history simplification, which removed merges | |
| which didn't change anything at all at some child. It will still actually | |
| simplify away merges that didn't change anything at all into either | |
| child. | |
| </p> | |
| </dd> | |
| <dt> | |
| --no-merges | |
| </dt> | |
| <dd> | |
| <p> | |
| Do not print commits with more than one parent. | |
| </p> | |
| </dd> | |
| <dt> | |
| --not | |
| </dt> | |
| <dd> | |
| <p> | |
| Reverses the meaning of the <em>^</em> prefix (or lack thereof) | |
| for all following revision specifiers, up to the next <em>--not</em>. | |
| </p> | |
| </dd> | |
| <dt> | |
| --all | |
| </dt> | |
| <dd> | |
| <p> | |
| Pretend as if all the refs in <tt>$GIT_DIR/refs/</tt> are listed on the | |
| command line as <em><commit></em>. | |
| </p> | |
| </dd> | |
| <dt> | |
| --stdin | |
| </dt> | |
| <dd> | |
| <p> | |
| In addition to the <em><commit></em> listed on the command | |
| line, read them from the standard input. | |
| </p> | |
| </dd> | |
| <dt> | |
| --cherry-pick | |
| </dt> | |
| <dd> | |
| <p> | |
| Omit any commit that introduces the same change as | |
| another commit on the "other side" when the set of | |
| commits are limited with symmetric difference.<br /> | |
| For example, if you have two branches, <tt>A</tt> and <tt>B</tt>, a usual way | |
| to list all commits on only one side of them is with | |
| <tt>--left-right</tt>, like the example above in the description of | |
| that option. It however shows the commits that were cherry-picked | |
| from the other branch (for example, "3rd on b" may be cherry-picked | |
| from branch A). With this option, such pairs of commits are | |
| excluded from the output. | |
| </p> | |
| </dd> | |
| <dt> | |
| -g, --walk-reflogs | |
| </dt> | |
| <dd> | |
| <p> | |
| Instead of walking the commit ancestry chain, walk | |
| reflog entries from the most recent one to older ones. | |
| When this option is used you cannot specify commits to | |
| exclude (that is, <em>^commit</em>, <em>commit1..commit2</em>, | |
| nor <em>commit1…commit2</em> notations cannot be used).<br /> | |
| With <em>--pretty</em> format other than oneline (for obvious reasons), | |
| this causes the output to have two extra lines of information | |
| taken from the reflog. By default, <em>commit@{Nth}</em> notation is | |
| used in the output. When the starting commit is specified as | |
| instead. Under <em>--pretty=oneline</em>, the commit message is | |
| prefixed with this information on the same line. | |
| </p> | |
| <p>Cannot be combined with <em>--reverse</em>.</p> | |
| </dd> | |
| <dt> | |
| --merge | |
| </dt> | |
| <dd> | |
| <p> | |
| After a failed merge, show refs that touch files having a | |
| conflict and don't exist on all heads to merge. | |
| </p> | |
| </dd> | |
| <dt> | |
| --boundary | |
| </dt> | |
| <dd> | |
| <p> | |
| Output uninteresting commits at the boundary, which are usually | |
| not shown. | |
| </p> | |
| </dd> | |
| <dt> | |
| --dense, --sparse | |
| </dt> | |
| <dd> | |
| <p> | |
| When optional paths are given, the default behaviour (<em>--dense</em>) is to | |
| only output commits that changes at least one of them, and also ignore | |
| merges that do not touch the given paths. | |
| </p> | |
| <p>Use the <em>--sparse</em> flag to makes the command output all eligible commits | |
| (still subject to count and age limitation), but apply merge | |
| simplification nevertheless.</p> | |
| </dd> | |
| <dt> | |
| --bisect | |
| </dt> | |
| <dd> | |
| <p> | |
| Limit output to the one commit object which is roughly halfway between | |
| the included and excluded commits. Thus, if | |
| </p> | |
| <div class="listingblock"> | |
| <div class="content"> | |
| <pre><tt> $ git-rev-list --bisect foo ^bar ^baz</tt></pre> | |
| </div></div> | |
| <p>outputs <em>midpoint</em>, the output of the two commands</p> | |
| <div class="listingblock"> | |
| <div class="content"> | |
| <pre><tt> $ git-rev-list foo ^midpoint | |
| $ git-rev-list midpoint ^bar ^baz</tt></pre> | |
| </div></div> | |
| <p>would be of roughly the same length. Finding the change which | |
| introduces a regression is thus reduced to a binary search: repeatedly | |
| generate and test new 'midpoint's until the commit chain is of length | |
| one.</p> | |
| </dd> | |
| <dt> | |
| --bisect-vars | |
| </dt> | |
| <dd> | |
| <p> | |
| This calculates the same as <tt>--bisect</tt>, but outputs text ready | |
| to be eval'ed by the shell. These lines will assign the name of | |
| the midpoint revision to the variable <tt>bisect_rev</tt>, and the | |
| expected number of commits to be tested after <tt>bisect_rev</tt> is | |
| tested to <tt>bisect_nr</tt>, the expected number of commits to be | |
| tested if <tt>bisect_rev</tt> turns out to be good to <tt>bisect_good</tt>, | |
| the expected number of commits to be tested if <tt>bisect_rev</tt> | |
| turns out to be bad to <tt>bisect_bad</tt>, and the number of commits | |
| we are bisecting right now to <tt>bisect_all</tt>. | |
| </p> | |

| </dl> | |
| <h3>Commit Ordering</h3> | |
| <p>By default, the commits are shown in reverse chronological order.</p> | |
| <dl> | |
| <dt> | |
| --topo-order | |
| </dt> | |
| <dd> | |
| <p> | |
| This option makes them appear in topological order (i.e. | |
| descendant commits are shown before their parents). | |
| </p> | |
| </dd> | |
| <dt> | |
| --date-order | |
| </dt> | |
| <dd> | |
| <p> | |
| This option is similar to <em>--topo-order</em> in the sense that no | |
| parent comes before all of its children, but otherwise things | |
| are still ordered in the commit timestamp order. | |
| </p> | |
| </dd> | |
| <dt> | |
| --reverse | |
| </dt> | |
| <dd> | |
| <p> | |
| Output the commits in reverse order. | |
| Cannot be combined with <em>--walk-reflogs</em>. | |
| </p> | |
| </dd> | |
| </dl> | |
| <h3>Object Traversal</h3> | |
| <p>These options are mostly targeted for packing of git repositories.</p> | |
| <dl> | |
| <dt> | |
| --objects | |
| </dt> | |
| <dd> | |
| <p> | |
| Print the object IDs of any object referenced by the listed | |
| commits. <em>git-rev-list --objects foo ^bar</em> thus means "send me | |
| all object IDs which I need to download if I have the commit | |
| object <em>bar</em>, but not <em>foo</em>". | |
| </p> | |
| </dd> | |
| <dt> | |
| --objects-edge | |
| </dt> | |
| <dd> | |
| <p> | |
| Similar to <em>--objects</em>, but also print the IDs of excluded | |
| commits prefixed with a "-" character. This is used by | |
| <a href="git-pack-objects.html">git-pack-objects(1)</a> to build "thin" pack, which records | |
| objects in deltified form based on objects contained in these | |
| excluded commits to reduce network traffic. | |
| </p> | |
| </dd> | |
| <dt> | |
| --unpacked | |
| </dt> | |
| <dd> | |
| <p> | |
| Only useful with <em>--objects</em>; print the object IDs that are not | |
| in packs. | |
| </p> | |
| </dd> | |
| <dt> | |
| --no-walk | |
| </dt> | |
| <dd> | |
| <p> | |
| Only show the given revs, but do not traverse their ancestors. | |
| </p> | |
| </dd> | |
| <dt> | |
| --do-walk | |
| </dt> | |
| <dd> | |
| <p> | |
| Overrides a previous --no-walk. | |
| </p> | |
| </dd> | |
| </dl> | |
| </div> | |
| <h2>PRETTY FORMATS</h2> | |
| <div class="sectionbody"> | |
| <p>If the commit is a merge, and if the pretty-format | |
| is not <em>oneline</em>, <em>email</em> or <em>raw</em>, an additional line is | |
| inserted before the <em>Author:</em> line. This line begins with | |
| "Merge: " and the sha1s of ancestral commits are printed, | |
| separated by spaces. Note that the listed commits may not | |
| necessarily be the list of the <strong>direct</strong> parent commits if you | |
| have limited your view of history: for example, if you are | |
| only interested in changes related to a certain directory or | |
| file.</p> | |
| <p>Here are some additional details for each format:</p> | |
| <ul> | |
| <li> | |
| <p> | |
| <em>oneline</em> | |
| </p> | |
| <div class="literalblock"> | |
| <div class="content"> | |

| <em>raw</em> | |
| </p> | |
| <p>The <em>raw</em> format shows the entire commit exactly as | |
| stored in the commit object. Notably, the SHA1s are | |
| displayed in full, regardless of whether --abbrev or | |
| --no-abbrev are used, and <em>parents</em> information show the | |
| true parent commits, without taking grafts nor history | |
| simplification into account.</p> | |
| </li> | |
| <li> | |
| <p> | |
| <em>format:</em> | |
| </p> | |
| <p>The <em>format:</em> format allows you to specify which information | |
| you want to show. It works a little bit like printf format, | |
| with the notable exception that you get a newline with <em>%n</em> | |
| instead of <em>\n</em>.</p> | |
| <p>E.g, <em>format:"The author of %h was %an, %ar%nThe title was >>%s<<%n"</em> | |
| would show something like this:</p> | |
| <div class="listingblock"> | |
| <div class="content"> | |
| <pre><tt>The author of fe6e0ee was Junio C Hamano, 23 hours ago | |
| The title was >>t4119: test autocomputing -p<n> for traditional diff input.<< | |
| </tt></pre> | |
