git-rev-list(1)
===============
 
NAME
----
git-rev-list - Lists commit objects in reverse chronological order
 
 
SYNOPSIS
--------
[verse]
'git rev-list' [<options>] <commit>... [[--] <path>...]
 
DESCRIPTION
-----------
 
:git-rev-list: 1
include::rev-list-description.txt[]
 
'rev-list' is a very essential Git command, since it
provides the ability to build and traverse commit ancestry graphs. For
this reason, it has a lot of different options that enables it to be
used by commands as different as 'git bisect' and
'git repack'.
