Enhanced Git Log

Enhanced Git Log adds useful key commands to your existing git log pager on the command line.

It is done by configuring a custom lesskey file to be loaded by the git log pager. This can be removed at any time by deleting the pager.log configuration value from the global .gitconfig file. The uninstall command below does this also. See the Makefile for details.

Installation

Warning: as of right now, the install script sets the pager.log configuration property, but does not back up or restore any existing configuration. Please back up your pager.log configuration before installing.

git clone [email protected]:drewbrokke/enhanced-git-log.git
cd enhanced-git-log
make install

Uninstall

cd enhanced-git-log
make uninstall

Usage

How it works

All key commands act on the commit found at the top line of the git log pager, or the first line from the top that contains a commit hash.

tab-* commands will receive a second commit to create and act on a commit range. The contents of the clipboard will be passed in as the second commit (you can press x or y to copy the top line's commit hash to the clipboard). The two commits are automatically sorted by ancestry, parent first.

For example, pressing d will execute: git diff {commit from top line}

Pressing tab-d will execute: git diff {parent}^..{child}.

Key Commands

All tab commands receive the top-line commit as the first argument, and the clipboard contents as the second argument.
