e.g., you’re building an app from source and you were at commit fc8c4883. You just pulled the latest changes and you want to know what’s changed since your last update:

git log --graph --decorate --pretty=oneline --abbrev-commit fc8c4883~1..HEAD

There you go, your nice, neat change list comprising commit messages awaits :)

(The key bit is the X~1..HEAD, everything else is just formatting.)

#git #changelist #tip #dev

@aral
Would that include merge commits?

I _think_ there's a way to exclude them, too.

Anyway, nice command! Define it as alias :)

@RyunoKi In fish shell, I just made a function:

```fish
function git-changes-since
git log --graph --decorate --pretty=oneline --abbrev-commit $argv[1]~1..HEAD
end
```

So I can do:

git-changes-since <commit>

#git #changeList #tip #fish #fishShell

Way easier this way :)

Or this variant:
alias.chlog=log --no-merges --oneline --stat @{1}..

no need to know the commit, works after a pull.

@flyingscorpio Oh, neat, will try that out next time I’m by a computer :)
