One of the most used git command is git log
which shows commit logs.
$ git log
I found custom git lg
looks more self-sufficient and descriptive. If you want to have this command follow next instruction.
Following image shows what's the difference between custom git lg
and git log --oneline
.
Go to C:\Users\YOURUSERNAME
and add code in .gitconfig file:
[alias]
lg = log --color --graph --pretty=format:'%Cred%h%Creset -%C(yellow)%d%Creset %s %Cgreen(%cr) %C(bold blue)<%an>%Creset' --abbrev-commit --branches
That's it!
From now on you can call git lg
and have new view in terminal. Enjoy!
