This should be one of the core features of Git, but for some reason it's impossible to figure out how to search for a string in your commit history and see the diffs that that string is in. Here's the best I've come up with:
To find which commits and which files a string was added or removed in:
git log -S'search string' --oneline --name-status
To see the diff of that
| # Output to a jpeg file | |
| set terminal jpeg size 1280,720 | |
| # Set the aspect ratio of the graph | |
| set size 1, 1 | |
| # The file to write to | |
| set output "timeseries.jpg" | |
| # The graph title |
| <?php | |
| /* | |
| * Converts CSV to JSON | |
| * Example uses Google Spreadsheet CSV feed | |
| * csvToArray function I think I found on php.net | |
| */ | |
| header('Content-type: application/json'); | |
| // Set your CSV feed |
| # If you work with git, you've probably had that nagging sensation of not knowing what branch you are on. Worry no longer! | |
| export PS1="\\w:\$(git branch 2>/dev/null | grep '^*' | colrm 1 2)\$ " | |
| # This will change your prompt to display not only your working directory but also your current git branch, if you have one. Pretty nifty! | |
| # ~/code/web:beta_directory$ git checkout master | |
| # Switched to branch "master" | |
| # ~/code/web:master$ git checkout beta_directory | |
| # Switched to branch "beta_directory" |
