git log -L without diff

问题

I'm trying to use git log -L <start>,<end>:<filename> but I would like to have very limited output (actually just hashes). While --pretty prints the commit info in the format I want, I did not find a way to not display the diff...

e.g. on linux-next what I tried is:

git log --pretty=format:"%H" -s -L 70,70:./arch/x86/include/asm/irqflags.h

where (according to the manpage) the -s is supposed to Supress the ouput of the diff, however the output is:

$ git log --pretty=format:"%H" -s -L 70,70:./arch/x86/include/asm/irqflags.h
6abcd98ffafbff81f0bfd7ee1d129e634af13245

回答1:

The -L option is not currently (and apparently never was) compatible with -s / --no-patch, because of this code called from line_log_print, called from the top of log_tree_commit when -L is in effect. Said code simply outputs the entire chosen line-range from any matched commit. (You could patch the hack to obey the diff output options, perhaps.)

(The other obvious workaround would be to use git rev-list instead of git log, except that -L is, as that first link notes, not properly integrated in the first place, so that git rev-list does not handle it.)

回答2:

That will be clearer with Git 2.22 (Q2 2019).

"git log -L<from>,<to>:<path>" with "-s" did not suppress the patch output as it should.
This has been corrected.

See commit 05314ef (11 Mar 2019), and commit 9f607cd (07 Mar 2019) by Jeff King (peff).

line-log: detect unsupported formats

If you use "log -L" with an output format like "--raw" or "--stat", we'll silently ignore the format and just output the normal patch.
Let's detect and complain about this, which at least tells the user what's going on.

It will now clearly display:

-L does not yet support diff formats besides -p and -s

回答3:

one grep solution is to pipe the output to grep to only print lines matching a commit:

git log -L 10,11:example.txt | grep 'commit \w' -A 4

grep matches the first line of each log entry and the prints the next 4 lines with the -A flag

It's a bit verbose though. Would love to hear if anyone has a better solution!
