| Junio C Hamano | 52f425e | 2013-08-09 13:01:48 -0700 | [diff] [blame] | 17 | Shows commit logs and diff output each commit introduces. |

| Junio C Hamano | 52f425e | 2013-08-09 13:01:48 -0700 | [diff] [blame] | 19 | New users are encouraged to use linkgit:git-log[1] instead. The |
| 20 | `whatchanged` command is essentially the same as linkgit:git-log[1] |
| 21 | but defaults to show the raw format diff output and to skip merges. |

| Junio C Hamano | 52f425e | 2013-08-09 13:01:48 -0700 | [diff] [blame] | 23 | The command is kept primarily for historical reasons; fingers of |
| 24 | many people who learned Git long before `git log` was invented by |
| 25 | reading Linux kernel mailing list are trained to type it. |
