git-diff-log

Find difference in commits of two branches with a single command

git-diff-log is a minimalist and simple command line commit analyzer. It is written in Python 3 and uses sqlite3 to cache the data.

Installing git-diff-log

git-diff-log requires Python 3 or newer, and some form of UNIX-like shell (bash works well). It works on Linux, OS X, and Windows (with Cygwin).

Installing and setting up git-diff-log will not take more than a minute.

First, download the newest version or clone the git repository (git clone https://github.com/pulkit-singhal/git-diff-log.git). Put it anywhere you like.

Install the required dependencies by running

python -m pip install -r requirements.txt

How to use ?

python gitdifflog.py /path/to/git/repo master release

Replace master and release with the branches that you want to compare

Optional command line parameters -

• -c commitCount - By passing this parameter, you can restrict the application to compare the only commitCount commits
• -r - This application starts the resolution mode, so that you can either resolve or ignore the commit. In case you ignored the commit, it will not not show up later in the results.
  Note: In case you wrongly ignored some commit, just delete the ignored_hashes.db file created. It will clear up all the ignored commits
