How to view the committed files you have not pushed yet?
The push
command has a -n
/--dry-run
option which will compute what needs to be pushed but not actually do it. Does that work for you?
I'm not great with Git, but this is what I do. This does not necessarily compare with the remote repo, but you can modify the git diff
with the appropriate commit hash from the remote.
Say you made one commit that you haven't pushed...
First find the last two commits...
git log -2
This shows the last commit first, and descends from there...
[jason:~/git/my_project] git log -2
commit ea7937edc8b10
Author: xyz
Date: Wed Jul 27 14:06:41 2016 -0500
Made a change in July
commit 52f9bf7956f0
Author: xyz
Date: Tue Jun 14 14:29:52 2016 -0500
Made a change in June
Now just use the two commit hashes (which I abbreviated) to run a diff:
git diff 52f9bf7956f0 ea7937edc8b10
Assuming you're on local branch master
, which is tracking origin/master
:
git diff --stat origin/master..
Here you'll find your answer:
Using Git how do I find changes between local and remote
For the lazy:
- Use "git log origin..HEAD"
- Use "git fetch" followed by "git log HEAD..origin". You can cherry-pick individual commits using the listed commit ids.
The above assumes, of course, that "origin" is the name of your remote tracking branch (which it is if you've used clone with default options).
