Hi all,
I know about git log's -S / -G, but I'm unable to make these search through *introduced* strings only. Is there a way to do so?
Thanks!
PS: I also read [1], but although the author claims to be interested in introduced strings only, he seems to be satisfied with -G, which slightly puzzles me.

If you are using linux, here is git diff command I use to find leftover
debug statements. I imagine the -S option will work the same in git
log. I pipe the results into grep to filter the results to show only
the additions. (I'm using git 1.7.1)
$ git diff --unified=0 -S"DEBUG" <commit> <commit> -- <path> | grep -e
"diff --" -e "+" | grep -v -e "@@" -e "+++"
maybe you will find this helpful.
v/r,
neal
