Different history depending on where git log is called -
i'm attempting view history of directory in git repo. i'm seeing 2 different histories depending on directory call git log.
case 1 (from root of repo):
$ git log path/to/files
returns 1 commit
case 2 (from sub directory):
$ cd path/to/files $ git log .
returns 13 commits, last commit displayed (earliest commit) same case 1.
shouldn't 2 cases return same history?
i've tried "--" , "--follow" in case 1 no effect.
they different. git log .
lists log, git log path/to/files
restricts log output changes pertinent files:
[\--] <path>…
show commits enough explain how files match specified paths came be. see history simplification below details , other simplification modes.
paths may need prefixed ‘`-- '’ separate them options or revision range, when confusion arises.
