Subject: RFH - git-log variant that _does_ search through diffs
Date: Mon, 29 Jun 2009 17:08:47 -0700 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <279b37b20906291708g67da3a75p316ea4893f02666a@mail.gmail.com> (raw)
[Surely this has been address before, but I wasn't able to find it...]
The documentation for git-log -S includes:
"Look for differences that introduce or remove an instance of <string>.
Note that this is different than the string simply appearing in diff output"
But I want to do that "different" thing (IOW I want search the diff output).
So must I loop through git-rev-list, grepping git-diff output on each commit?
Or if it _is_ possible to search the diff output directly then it
might be useful
to link to the relevant description instead of saying what -S doesn't do.
Thanks - Eric
