something like 'find' in revisions

[Ittay Dror]

Hi,

How can I find files with a given name (or pattern) in my history (where 
I don't know the exact path and some files have been removed)?

Thank you,
Ittay

I'd grep in the output of "git rev-list --objects".  Then I'd have the 
full name, and "git log --all -- <fullpath>" is my friend.
