Question

I am using git to track changes in configuration files of third-party application. At the first moment I did initial commit and then was fitting settings of the application gradually. Now I have final good settings and committed them into git. I wish to see what I had changed.

How to accomplish this?

I did

git log --graph

or similar, but see all commits marked with long hexadecimal numbers. May I use them for git diff?

Answer 1

You can use the -p argument with git log to get all diffs for all commits:

git log --graph -p

If you want to see the complete diff from the first commit to HEAD you can do something like this:

git diff `git rev-list HEAD | tail -n 1` HEAD
