I found something very strange in graphical history tools "gitk" and "git log --graph" when used with --follow. In Git repository compare the following: $ gitk -- utf8.c $ gitk --follow -- utf8.c The output of "git log --graph" is somewhat similar: $ git log --graph --pretty=oneline -- utf8.c $ git log --graph --pretty=oneline --follow -- utf8.c All I can say is that the output is not intuitive at _all_. Almost all the commits are in separate history lines. -- 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
