From 28a4d940443806412effa246ecc7768a21553ec7 Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Johannes Schindelin Date: Sat, 24 Feb 2007 03:08:20 +0100 Subject: [PATCH] object name: introduce ':/' notation To name a commit, you can now say $ git rev-parse ':/Initial revision of "git"' and it will return the hash of the youngest commit whose commit message (the oneline) begins with the given prefix. For future extension, a leading exclamation mark is treated specially: if you want to match a commit message starting with a '!', just repeat the exclamation mark. So, to match a commit which starts with '!Hello World', use $ git show ':/!!Hello World' Signed-off-by: Johannes Schindelin Signed-off-by: Junio C Hamano --- Documentation/git-rev-parse.txt | 7 ++++ sha1_name.c | 58 +++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++ 2 files changed, 65 insertions(+) diff --git a/Documentation/git-rev-parse.txt b/Documentation/git-rev-parse.txt index 4041a1607..ccc66aae7 100644 --- a/Documentation/git-rev-parse.txt +++ b/Documentation/git-rev-parse.txt @@ -190,6 +190,13 @@ blobs contained in a commit. and dereference the tag recursively until a non-tag object is found. +* A colon, followed by a slash, followed by a text: this names + a commit whose commit message starts with the specified text. + This name returns the youngest matching commit which is + reachable from any ref.
