Finding most changed files in Git

Question

How can I show files in Git which change most often?

Answer 1

Old question, but I think still a very useful question. Here is a working example in straight powershell. This will get the top 10 most changed files in your repo with respect to the branch you are on.

git log --pretty=format: --name-only | Where-Object { ![string]::IsNullOrEmpty($_) } | Sort-Object | Group-Object  | Sort-Object -Property Count -Descending | Select-Object -Property Count, Name -First 10
