1git-reflog(1) 2============= 3 4NAME 5---- 6git-reflog - Manage reflog information 7 8 9SYNOPSIS 10-------- 11'git reflog' <subcommand> <options> 12 13DESCRIPTION 14----------- 15The command takes various subcommands, and different options 16depending on the subcommand: 17 18[verse] 19git reflog expire [--dry-run] [--stale-fix] 20 [--expire=<time>] [--expire-unreachable=<time>] [--all] <refs>... 21 22git reflog [show] [log-options] 23 24Reflog is a mechanism to record when the tip of branches are 25updated. This command is to manage the information recorded in it. 26 27The subcommand "expire" is used to prune older reflog entries. 28Entries older than `expire` time, or entries older than 29`expire-unreachable` time and are not reachable from the current 30tip, are removed from the reflog. This is typically not used 31directly by the end users -- instead, see gitlink:git-gc[1]. 32 33The subcommand "show" (which is also the default, in the absense of any 34subcommands) will take all the normal log options, and show the log of 35the current branch. It is basically an alias for 'git log -g --abbrev-commit 36--pretty=oneline', see gitlink:git-log[1]. 37 38 39OPTIONS 40------- 41 42--expire=<time>:: 43 Entries older than this time are pruned. Without the 44 option it is taken from configuration `gc.reflogExpire`, 45 which in turn defaults to 90 days. 46 47--expire-unreachable=<time>:: 48 Entries older than this time and are not reachable from 49 the current tip of the branch are pruned. Without the 50 option it is taken from configuration 51 `gc.reflogExpireUnreachable`, which in turn defaults to 52 30 days. 53 54--all:: 55 Instead of listing <refs> explicitly, prune all refs. 56 57Author 58------ 59Written by Junio C Hamano <junkio@cox.net> 60 61Documentation 62-------------- 63Documentation by Junio C Hamano and the git-list <git@vger.kernel.org>. 64 65GIT 66--- 67Part of the gitlink:git[7] suite 68
