Hello all. I wanted to generate several files with some statistics using "git log -z" command. I did something like this: git log -z --patch HEAD~10..HEAD -- SomePathHere | xargs -0 --max-chars=1000000 ~/1.sh If I put echo "started" into the file ~/1.sh I see that the file is called only once instead of multiple times. I'm newbie to xargs, thus I tested with and that worked as I expected. find . -type f -print0 | xargs -0 ./1.sh That produced a lost of "started" lines. Thus I suspect there is a but in git log -z command and that doesn't "Separate the commits with NULs instead of with new newlines." as promised in the documents. Is my understanding correct or I don't understand the documentation or somehow pass wrong parameters into git log?
Just a guess, but doesn't the "--patch" option to git log ask it to produce a patch output? Surely that will override the -z: patch will not be expecting NULs.
