Subject: history of a renamed file
Date: Wed, 23 Apr 2008 15:02:33 +0200 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <480F3369.5080203@melosgmbh.de> (raw)
Given a repo that contains a file x.c
that got renamed from
some/path/x.c
to
new/location/x.c
Is it possible (ideally with gitk) to view the complete history of what
is now new/location/x.c *including* the history of changes that occurred
when it stil was some/path/x.c?
When I say "gitk new/location/x.c" I get just the changes made starting
with the rename.
When I call "gitk" and look for the changeset, the rename is detected,
though. Therefore I hope that it is somehow possible to obtain the
complete file-specific history without truncation at renames.
Any ideas?
Thank you, best regards
Christoph
