Subject: "git log -5 --follow" returns too few commits
Date: Tue, 17 Jun 2008 07:21:23 -0400 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <200806170721.23950.neitzke@ias.edu> (raw)
Hi,
Using either git 1.5.5.4 or the current master, on my system the command
git log -5 --follow some-file
often returns fewer than 5 commits, even when
git log --follow some-file
returns more than 5. This behavior occurs even for some files which have
never been renamed. Is this a bug, or is this the expected behavior for some
reason?
Best wishes and thanks,
-Andy
