git log --follow, the gitpython way
I am trying to access the commit history of a single file as in:
git log --follow -- <filename>
I have to use gitpython, so what I am doing now is:
import git
g = git.Git('repo_dir')
hexshas = g.log('--pretty=%H','--follow','--',filename).split('\n')
then I build commit objects:
repo = git.Repo('repo_dir')
commits = [repo.rev_parse(c) for c in r]
Is there a way to do it in a more gitpython-ic way?
I tried both commit.iter_parents() and commit.iter_items(), but they both rely on git-rev-list, so they don't have a --follow option.
Answer
For example,
With range time:
g = git.Git("C:/path/to/your/repo")
loginfo = g.log('--since=2013-09-01','--author=KIM BASINGER','--pretty=tformat:','--numstat')
print loginfo
Output:
3 2 path/in/your/solutions/some_file.cs
You can see the added lines, removed lines and the file with these changes.
