git-whatchanged

git-whatchanged - Show logs with differences each commit introduces

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.

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.
