Magit: Show commits touching one file only
Published on Sep 4, 2021, by Junji Zhi
It’s useful if you want to see file edit history:
- Open
(magit-status) - press
l - limit to files
-- - press
lagain
Tip: You use the regex pattern to match multiple files.
Alternative: Use magit-blame, or C-c v B to see the commits overlay on the file, but if the file is changed often, the information can be too dense to look at. The above trick prints out a list of commits, which is cleaner.
