Cannot comment. ypid's answer modified for powershell

git ls-tree -r -l --abbrev --full-name HEAD | Sort-Object {[int]($_ -split "\s+")[3]} | Select-Object -last 10

Edit raphinesse's solution(ish)

git rev-list --objects --all | git cat-file --batch-check='%(objecttype) %(objectname) %(objectsize) %(rest)' | Where-Object {$_ -like "blob*"} | Sort-Object {[int]($_ -split "\s+")[2]} | Select-Object -last 10
