git-last-modified1
Experimental: show when files were last modified
Usage
git last-modified
[--recursive]
[--show-trees]
[--max-depth=<depth>]
[-z]
[<revision-range>]
[[--]
<pathspec> ...]
Overview
Shows which commit last modified each of the relevant files and subdirectories. A commit renaming a path, or changing it’s mode is also taken into account.
THIS COMMAND IS EXPERIMENTAL. THE BEHAVIOR MAY CHANGE.
Options
-
-r, --recursive -
Recursively traverse into all subtrees. By default, the command only shows tree entries matching the <pathspec>. With this option, it descends into subtrees and displays all entries within them. Equivalent to
--max-depth=-1.
-
-t, --show-trees -
Show tree entries even when recursing into them.
-
--max-depth=<depth> -
For each pathspec given on the command line, traverse at most <depth> levels into subtrees. A negative value means no limit. The default is 0, which shows all paths matching the pathspec without descending into subtrees.
-
-z -
Terminate each line with a NUL character rather than a newline.
<revision-range>
Only traverse commits in the specified revision range. When no <revision-range> is specified, it defaults to HEAD (i.e. the whole history leading to the current commit). For a complete list of ways to spell <revision-range>, see the Specifying Ranges section of gitrevisions(7).
[--] <pathspec>...
Show the commit that last modified each path matching <pathspec>. If no <pathspec> is given, all files and subdirectories are included. See gitglossary(7) for details on pathspec syntax.
Output
The output is in the format:
<oid> TAB <path> LF
If a path contains any special characters, the path is C-style quoted. To avoid quoting, pass option -z to terminate each line with a NUL.
<oid> TAB <path> NUL
