I'm confused - why aren't these available on your local disk? Do you not have a clone of the kernel repository local? If you don't have a clone you aren't really going to be able to get a history. But assuming you had one use whatchanged: git whatchanged A will show only the commits which affected file A, listing them in reverse order (most recent to oldest). -- Shawn. - : send the line "unsubscribe git" in the body of a message to majordomo@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx More majordomo info at http://vger.kernel.org/majordomo-info.html
