Git Investigating and Tools
Find who changed what and when, hunt bugs with bisect, use worktrees, and debug .gitignore rules.
| Name | Description | Since |
|---|---|---|
git blame |
Show who last changed each line of a file and in which commit, to find the context of a line of code. | |
git bisect |
Binary-search the history for the commit that introduced a bug, manually or automatically with a test script. | |
git worktree |
Check out several branches at once in separate directories that share one repository, without stashing or cloning. | |
git check-ignore |
Find out whether a path is ignored and which .gitignore rule ignores it; useful for debugging .gitignore patterns. |
