What changed in merge commit?

[Date Prev][Date Next][Thread Prev][Thread Next][Date Index][Thread Index]

 



Since today seems to be my day to hang out on this list, I thought I'd
ask another burning question...

How can I see what changed in a merge commit?

$ git log

just says "merge remote branch 'origin/master' into wpd" and

$ git log --name-status

says the same thing -- it doesn't list any files as having changed.

Perhaps nothing changed between the last time I merged with
origin/master and the current time.  I know that at least one change
was committed.  I suppose it's possible that two (or more) changes
were committed, undoing that one change.  (But I don't think that's
likely).

I could go back and look at the log for origin/master... and I'm sure
there's some way to say "just give me the log of changes since the
last time I merged", or more to the point now, "just give me the log
of changes since the time before the last time I merged".  It probably
has something to do with a couple of ref names, a caret, and some
dots, but I get lost in all of that syntax.

Thanks for the tips.
