Subject: How can I restrict git-diff to a specific set of directories?
Date: Tue, 13 Jan 2009 15:49:03 -0800	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <1231890543.31432.5.camel@rotwang.fnordora.org> (raw)

I have a repository that I need to build a set of patches for a single
directory path.  (I just want the diffs on the one driver.)

Is there a clean non-hacky way to do this?

It is not cross repository or anything. I just need to generate a diff
between one commit and another, but only for the contents of a specific
directory.

I am not finding a real straightforward way to do that.  (Unless I am
missing something, which is quite possible.)

Thanks!
