Spelunking of a Git project's history #209

Open kieranpotts opened 1 year ago

Here are two aliases suggested on the mailing list by Junio Hamano:

[alias]
        whois = "!sh -c 'git log -i -1 --pretty=\"format:%an <%ae>\n\" --author=\"$1\"' -"
        whatis = show -s --pretty='tformat:%h (%s, %ad)' --date=short

Try then by yourself! The first takes the name of a person or their email address. The second takes a commit name.
