Subject: How to find a commit that introduces (not removes) a string?
Date: Thu, 03 Nov 2011 10:50:18 +0100 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <j8to8h$vqd$1@dough.gmane.org> (raw)
Hi all,
I know about git log's -S / -G, but I'm unable to make these search through *introduced* strings only. Is there a way to do so?
Thanks!
PS: I also read [1], but although the author claims to be interested in introduced strings only, he seems to be satisfied with -G, which slightly puzzles me.
