Git, see a list of comments of my last N commits

Use the --author and/or --committer filtering options with git log, plus the -n option to limit the number of commits. For example:

git log --author='Salvador Dali' -n 10

If you want to use the command line you can use the --author=<your name>

For example: to see your last 5 commits

git log -n 5 --author=Salvador

If you want a simpler one line solution:

git log --oneline -n 5 --author=Salvador

Edited to add

If you like the single line version, try creating an alias for git log like this (this is what I have for zsh)

alias glog="git log --graph --pretty=format:'%Cred%h%Creset -%C(yellow)%d%Creset %s %Cgreen(%cr) %C(bold blue)<%an>%Creset' --abbrev-commit"

Now, I can just use:

glog -n 5

And I get a nice output such as:

Which is colourised, shows the name of the author and also shows the graph and you can still pass in other flags (such as --author) which lets you filter it even more.

git log --format="%h %B" --oneline -n 1

This will get you latest git log comment block with abbreviated commit id.

git log --format="%H %B" -n 1

This will get you latest git log comment block with full commit id.

You can build your own format from : Git Pretty Format

git log --author="My name" -n 5 (see man git-log for all alternatives)
