jj-evolog(1) General Commands Manual jj-evolog(1) NAME jj-evolog - Show how a change has evolved over time SYNOPSIS jj evolog [-r|--revision] [-n|--limit] [--reversed] [--no-graph] [-T|--template] [-p|--patch] [-s|--summary] [--stat] [--types] [--name-only] [--git] [--color-words] [--tool] [--context] [--ignore-all-space] [--ignore-space-change] [-R|--repository] [--ignore-working-copy] [--ignore-immutable] [--at-operation] [--debug] [--color] [--quiet] [--no-pager] [--config] [--config-file] [-h|--help] DESCRIPTION Show how a change has evolved over time Lists the previous commits which a change has pointed to. The current commit of a change evolves when the change is updated, rebased, etc. OPTIONS -r, --revision=REVSET [default: @] -n, --limit=LIMIT Limit number of revisions to show Applied after revisions are reordered topologically, but before being reversed. --reversed Show revisions in the opposite order (older revisions first) --no-graph Don't show the graph, show a flat list of revisions -T, --template=TEMPLATE Render each revision using the given template Run `jj log -T` to list the built-in templates. You can also specify arbitrary [template expressions] using the [built-in keywords]. [template expression]: https://jj-vcs.github.io/jj/latest/templates/ [built-in keywords]: https://jj-vcs.github.io/jj/latest/templates/#commit-keywords -p, --patch Show patch compared to the previous version of this change If the previous version has different parents, it will be temporarily rebased to the parents of the new version, so the diff is not contaminated by unrelated changes. -s, --summary For each path, show only whether it was modified, added, or deleted --stat Show a histogram of the changes --types For each path, show only its type before and after The diff is shown as two letters. The first letter indicates the type before and the second letter indicates the type after. '-' indicates that the path was not present, 'F' represents a regular file, `L' represents a symlink, 'C' represents a conflict, and 'G' represents a Git submodule. --name-only For each path, show only its path Typically useful for shell commands like: `jj diff -r @- --name-only | xargs perl -pi -e's/OLD/NEW/g` --git Show a Git-format diff --color-words Show a word-level diff with changes indicated only by color --tool=TOOL Generate diff by external command --context=CONTEXT Number of lines of context to show --ignore-all-space Ignore whitespace when comparing lines --ignore-space-change Ignore changes in amount of whitespace when comparing lines -R, --repository=REPOSITORY Path to repository to operate on By default, Jujutsu searches for the closest .jj/ directory in an ancestor of the current working directory. --ignore-working-copy Don't snapshot the working copy, and don't update it By default, Jujutsu snapshots the working copy at the beginning of every command. The working copy is also updated at the end of the command, if the command modified the working-copy commit (`@`). If you want to avoid snapshotting the working copy and instead see a possibly stale working-copy commit, you can use `--ignore-working-copy`. This may be useful e.g. in a command prompt, especially if you have another process that commits the working copy. Loading the repository at a specific operation with `--at-operation` implies `--ignore-working-copy`. --ignore-immutable Allow rewriting immutable commits By default, Jujutsu prevents rewriting commits in the configured set of immutable commits. This option disables that check and lets you rewrite any commit but the root commit. This option only affects the check. It does not affect the `immutable_heads()` revset or the `immutable` template keyword. --at-operation=AT_OPERATION Operation to load the repo at Operation to load the repo at. By default, Jujutsu loads the repo at the most recent operation, or at the merge of the divergent operations if any. You can use `--at-op=` to see what the repo looked like at an earlier operation. For example `jj --at-op= st` will show you what `jj st` would have shown you when the given operation had just finished. `--at-op=@` is pretty much the same as the default except that divergent operations will never be merged. Use `jj op log` to find the operation ID you want. Any unambiguous prefix of the operation ID is enough. When loading the repo at an earlier operation, the working copy will be ignored, as if `--ignore-working-copy` had been specified. It is possible to run mutating commands when loading the repo at an earlier operation. Doing that is equivalent to having run concurrent commands starting at the earlier operation. There's rarely a reason to do that, but it is possible. --debug Enable debug logging --color=WHEN When to colorize output [possible values: always, never, debug, auto] --quiet Silence non-primary command output For example, `jj file list` will still list files, but it won't tell you if the working copy was snapshotted or if descendants were rebased. Warnings and errors will still be printed. --no-pager Disable the pager --config=NAME=VALUE Additional configuration options (can be repeated) The name should be specified as TOML dotted keys. The value should be specified as a TOML expression. If string value doesn't contain any TOML constructs (such as array notation), quotes can be omitted. --config-file=PATH Additional configuration files (can be repeated) -h, --help Print help (see a summary with '-h') evolog jj-evolog(1)
