Viewing commit history

Git allows you to view the history of commits in a repository, which can be useful for understanding the changes that have been made over time.

Here is an example of how to view the commit history in Git:

1. Run the following command in your terminal or Git Bash:

This will display a list of all the commits in the repository, along with information such as the commit message, the author, and the date.

2. You can also view a specific commit by using its hash value, which is a unique identifier for each commit. For example:

In this example, <commit-hash> is the hash value of the commit you want to view.

The output will show the details of the specific commit, including the commit message, author, and date.

Note that you can also view a simplified version of the commit history using the following command:

This will display the commit history with each commit on a single line, along with its hash value and commit message.

These are some of the ways you can view the commit history in Git. This can be useful for understanding the changes that have been made over time and finding specific commits.
