|  | ================== | 
|  |  | 
|  | 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' |
