This is an old command that is mostly equivalent to git-log
. In fact, the
man page for git-whatchanged
says:
New users are encouraged to use git-log(1) instead.
The difference is that git-whatchanged
shows you the changed files in
their raw format which can be useful if you know what you are looking for.
See man git-whatchanged
for more details.
