Question

I’m using this:

git log --since="3 months ago" 

but it just shows me the last 8 commits (done more or less during the last two months).

I have a much more bigger list of commits as I can see from my bitbucket account…So how can I see them from my terminal??

Answer 1

git log will only show commits that are direct ancestors of the current HEAD (the commit you have checked out), so it may not be showing the commits you expect because they are on other branches.

You can add the --all flag to git log so that it will show commits on all branches:

git log --all --since='3 months ago'

If the commits in bitbucket were pushed by someone else, then it’s also possible that you haven’t fetched them yet, so you may want to run git fetch first to make sure your remote-tracking branches are up-to-date.
