Subject: How to use path limiting (using a glob)?
Date: Wed, 11 Feb 2009 20:14:32 +0100	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <20090211191432.GC27232@m62s10.vlinux.de> (raw)

Hallo,

after reading Junio's nice blog today where he explained how to use git grep
efficiently, I saw him using a glob to match for the interesting files:

	 $ git grep -e ';;' -- '*.c'

Is it possible to have the same feature in git diff and the revision
machinery? Because I tried

	$ cd $path_to_your_git_src_dir
	$ git log master -p -- '*.h'
	.... No commit shown 

	$ git diff --name-only v1.5.0  v1.6.0 -- '*.c'

and both don't return anything.

Grettings,
Peter Baumann
