How to have git log show filenames like svn log -v

Question

SVN's log has a "-v" mode that outputs filenames of files changed in each commit, like so:

jes5199$ svn log -v
------------------------------------------------------------------------
r1 |   jes5199 | 2007-01-03 14:39:41 -0800 (Wed, 03 Jan 2007) | 1 line
Changed paths:
   A /AUTHORS
   A /COPYING
   A /ChangeLog
   A /EVOLUTION
   A /INSTALL
   A /MacOSX

Is there a quick way to get a list of changed files in each commit in git?

Answer 1

You can use the command git whatchanged to get a list of files that changed in each commit (along with the commit message).

Answer 2

Try one of the following.

git log --name-status

or

git log --name-only

or

git log --stat
