So basically everything that is (1) produced by "git commit", (2) not connected to any ref and (3) not an amend. I think (1) and (3) can be achieved with "git log -g --grep-reflog commit: HEAD". We only need to filter out ones that are connected to some ref. Not sure if that can be done with script though. Maybe add "--dangling" to "git log -g" to do such filtering? -- Duy -- 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
