| 14 | DESCRIPTION |
| 15 | ----------- |
| Junio C Hamano | 1a4e841 | 2005-12-27 08:17:23 | [diff] [blame] | 16 | |
| Junio C Hamano | 0241d05 | 2013-08-30 23:52:17 | [diff] [blame] | 17 | Shows commit logs and diff output each commit introduces. |
| Junio C Hamano | 1a4e841 | 2005-12-27 08:17:23 | [diff] [blame] | 18 | |
| Junio C Hamano | 0241d05 | 2013-08-30 23:52:17 | [diff] [blame] | 19 | New users are encouraged to use linkgit:git-log[1] instead. The |
| 20 | `whatchanged` command is essentially the same as linkgit:git-log[1] |
| 21 | but defaults to show the raw format diff output and to skip merges. |

| Junio C Hamano | 0241d05 | 2013-08-30 23:52:17 | [diff] [blame] | 23 | The command is kept primarily for historical reasons; fingers of |
| 24 | many people who learned Git long before `git log` was invented by |
| 25 | reading Linux kernel mailing list are trained to type it. |
