I tried to process some files that changed between each commit using the command git filter-branch --tree-filter 'git diff --name-only HEAD^.. | foo however it seems that HEAD is fixed to mean the HEAD of the current tip before starting git-filter-branch, by trying like this $ git rev-list -1 HEAD^ 2bf95faed2d51c338ea6fa93e7bb6cc9c1bc759b git filter-branch --tree-filter 'git rev-list -1 HEAD^ >>/tmp/sha' -- --all $ cat /tmp/sha 2bf95faed2d51c338ea6fa93e7bb6cc9c1bc759b 2bf95faed2d51c338ea6fa93e7bb6cc9c1bc759b 2bf95faed2d51c338ea6fa93e7bb6cc9c1bc759b 2bf95faed2d51c338ea6fa93e7bb6cc9c1bc759b how to get the HEAD during filter-branch or other workaround? -- regards, ==================================================== GPG key 1024D/4434BAB3 2008-08-24 gpg --keyserver subkeys.pgp.net --recv-keys 4434BAB3 -- To unsubscribe from this list: 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
