Logging

As commits are being made, you may want to see whats changes have occurred to the repository or a file within it. For this git logging is useful.

  • To see changes within the repository, run git log.
  • If you’d like to see changes to a specific file run git log [filename].

Additionally, you can use one of the following flags if you’d like to increase or decrease the verbosity of the output:

# Standard View
git log [filename]

# Condensed View
git log --oneline [filename]

# Verbose View
git log -p [filename]
