NAME
       git-whatchanged - Show logs with differences each commit introduces

SYNOPSIS
       git whatchanged <option>...


WARNING
       git whatchanged has been deprecated and is scheduled for removal in a
       future version of Git, as it is merely git log with different default;
       whatchanged is not even shorter to type than log --raw.

DESCRIPTION
       Shows commit logs and diff output each commit introduces.

       New users are encouraged to use git-log(1) instead. The whatchanged
       command is essentially the same as git-log(1) but defaults to showing
       the raw format diff output and skipping merges.

       The command is primarily kept for historical reasons; fingers of many
       people who learned Git long before git log was invented by reading the
       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
