It wasn't easy to find the commit. First I figured out at which path that file
was stored. Using git log -S'wm8962_reg[WM8962_MAX_REGISTER + 1]' I quickly
determined that the file was somewhere in sound/, more specifically
sound/soc/codecs/wm8962-tables.c. However a 'git log --
sound/soc/codecs/wm8962-tables.c' did not show any commit. That was strange,
because 'git log -S'WM8962_MAX_REGISTER + 1' --name-status --
sound/soc/codecs/' clearly shows that the file existed at some point in the
past. The commit is hidden from a simple 'git log' due to 'History
Simplification'. See the git-log man page. I added --full-history -p to the log
command, and searched in the pager for '6fa98e'. That revealed the commit which
references that blob:
git log --full-history -p -- sound/soc/codecs/wm8962-tables.c

Thanks very much for the elucidation. I really must RTFMs. Only 44.786
Kib lines. Porcelain (mostly) first. I just can't eliminate the reading
I need to do.
FWIW, I was somewhat perplexed by searching for
c969f19f8fd17e600a16fe91aab66d86936cce0a in 'gitk -all'. It doesn't find
it BUT if I use --select-commit=c969f19f8fd17e600a16fe91aab66d86936cce0a
then positions to it. If I position away again it again can't find
it. Bother!
BTW, this was all occasioned by looking for unused large packed blobs as
an educational exercise.
Thanks again,
Bruce

Please excuse one inaccuracy: I did a 'git pull' not a clone. So it could be an old .idx file at my end possibly.
Thanks,
