How can I show the name of branches in `git log`?
Try the decorate option.
git log --graph --all --decorate
It annotates commits which are pointed to by tags or branches.
I was looking for something similar to this - but wanted to know what branch a change was made. Hopefully this answer will be of use to others also.
I'm investigating a risk with blackbox
encryption, where a repo and it's branches/tags may become unavailable to current admins
when enough users leave a project and the keyrings
directory has not been religiously based off of master)
I found that the answer below was helpful where the keyrings
directory was not updated from master...
Basically adding --source
was what I needed to show the branches/tags. Adding --name-only
will also show which file was actually changed.
cd /path/to/repo-that-uses-blackbox-encryption
git log --graph --all --decorate --source --name-only keyrings
