It's a somewhat expensive operation, since you have to walk history
backwards looking at changes. But try:
git log --pretty=format: --name-only |
grep . |
perl -ne 'print unless $seen{$_}++'
which will walk history backwards, printing out each filename the most
recent time it is encountered. Which should give you a list of all files
in the repo (including ones which no longer exist!), in order of most
recent to oldest.
If you want to restrict only to existing files, you would have to do
some clever path-limiting, or parse the results with a slightly smarter
perl script.
You can also tweak the definition of "most recent" by using --topo-order
or --date-order with git log.
