And I frequently use it - for ex, to check (only) the commits in a branch - say origin/jacobf/2020-09-09/feature/petscmapping/future
gitk main..origin/jacobf/2020-09-09/feature/petscmapping/future [equivalent to "git log main..origin/jacobf/2020-09-09/feature/petscmapping/future"] And then check the diffs for individual commit (as needed) via this interface Check only the diffs for changes to include/petsc.h in this branch gitk main..origin/jacobf/2020-09-09/feature/petscmapping/future include/petsc.h Satish On Wed, 3 Mar 2021, Jacob Faibussowitsch wrote: > > 'gitk' is easier to read [for me] than 'git log --graph' > > Where was this my entire life… best kept git secret! > > Best regards, > > Jacob Faibussowitsch > (Jacob Fai - booss - oh - vitch) > Cell: (312) 694-3391 > > > On Mar 3, 2021, at 13:55, Satish Balay <ba...@mcs.anl.gov> wrote: > > > > 'gitk' is easier to read [for me] than 'git log --graph' > > > > Satish > > > > On Wed, 3 Mar 2021, Jacob Faibussowitsch wrote: > > > >>> git: 'graph' is not a git command.
