-g, \--walk-reflogs::
Show commits as they were recorded in the reflog. The log contains
a record about how the tip of a reference was changed.
+ Cannot be combined with --reverse.
See also gitlink:git-reflog[1].
--decorate::
- Print out the ref names of any commits that are shown.
+ Print out the ref names of any commits that are shown.
+
+--full-diff::
+ Without this flag, "git log -p <paths>..." shows commits that
+ touch the specified paths, and diffs about the same specified
+ paths. With this, the full diff is shown for commits that touch
+ the specified paths; this means that "<paths>..." limits only
+ commits, and doesn't limit diff for those commits.
+
+--follow::
+ Continue listing the history of a file beyond renames.
+
+--log-size::
+ Before the log message print out its size in bytes. Intended
+ mainly for porcelain tools consumption. If git is unable to
+ produce a valid value size is set to zero.
+ Note that only message is considered, if also a diff is shown
+ its size is not included.
<paths>...::
Show only commits that affect the specified paths.
The "--" is necessary to avoid confusion with the *branch* named
'gitk'
-git log -r --name-status release..test::
+git log --name-status release..test::
Show the commits that are in the "test" branch but not yet
in the "release" branch, along with the list of paths
each commit modifies.
+git log --follow builtin-rev-list.c::
+
+ Shows the commits that changed builtin-rev-list.c, including
+ those commits that occurred before the file was given its
+ present name.
