If You Like `git`, You'll Love `tig`

Mike’s professional discussions

If you like git, you’ll love tig.

I’ve started to prep the bones for a blog site, probably at linuxexam.com. Once I get it going, I’ll move / copy some of the stuff I’ve been posting on LinkedIn (and elsewehere). I’ve forked and detached some work I did previously. Fortunately that type of cloning includes the commit history.

(I’m thankful that I had pushed for an open source license for the subject repository. In this case, thank you Creative Commons! (4.0))

I was just looking for how to replace a (company) logo from the repo I cloned.

If you’ve followed best practices with Git, you’ll have included descriptive messages with details.

Unfortunately, I didn’t. But I used tig to find the details (courtesy of info connected to the commit hash).

Practical example which shows files changed with a commit

This includes all the details I need!
