git-last-modified(1) Git Manual git-last-modified(1)
NAME
git-last-modified - EXPERIMENTAL: Show when files were last modified
SYNOPSIS
git last-modified [--recursive] [--show-trees] [<revision-range>] [[--] <path>...]
DESCRIPTION
Shows which commit last modified each of the relevant files and
subdirectories. A commit renaming a path, or changing it's mode is also
taken into account.
THIS COMMAND IS EXPERIMENTAL. THE BEHAVIOR MAY CHANGE.
OPTIONS
-r, --recursive
Instead of showing tree entries, step into subtrees and show all
entries inside them recursively.
-t, --show-trees
Show tree entries even when recursing into them. It has no effect
without --recursive.
<revision-range>
Only traverse commits in the specified revision range. When no
<revision-range> is specified, it defaults to HEAD (i.e. the whole
history leading to the current commit). For a complete list of ways
to spell <revision-range>, see the Specifying Ranges section of
gitrevisions(7).
[--] <path>...
For each <path> given, the commit which last modified it is
returned. Without an optional path parameter, all files and
subdirectories in path traversal the are included in the output.
