+==========
+
+NAME
+----
+git-log - Show commit logs
+
+
+SYNOPSIS
+--------
+'git log' <option>...
+
+DESCRIPTION
+-----------
+Shows the commit logs.
+
+The command takes options applicable to the 'git-rev-list'
+command to control what is shown and how, and options applicable to
+the 'git-diff-*' commands to control how the changes
+each commit introduces are shown.
+
+
+OPTIONS
+-------
+
+:git-log: 1
+include::diff-options.txt[]
+
+-<n>::
+	Limits the number of commits to show.
+
+<since>..<until>::
+	Show only commits between the named two commits.  When
+	either <since> or <until> is omitted, it defaults to
+	`HEAD`, i.e. the tip of the current branch.
+	For a more complete list of ways to spell <since>
+	and <until>, see "SPECIFYING REVISIONS" section in
+	linkgit:git-rev-parse[1].
+
+--decorate::
+	Print out the ref names of any commits that are shown.
+
+--full-diff::
+	Without this flag, "git log -p <path>..." shows commits that
+	touch the specified paths, and diffs about the same specified
+	paths.  With this, the full diff is shown for commits that touch
+	the specified paths; this means that "<path>..." limits only
+	commits, and doesn't limit diff for those commits.
+
+--follow::
+	Continue listing the history of a file beyond renames.
+
+--log-size::
+	Before the log message print out its size in bytes. Intended
+	mainly for porcelain tools consumption. If git is unable to
+	produce a valid value size is set to zero.
+	Note that only message is considered, if also a diff is shown
+	its size is not included.
+
+<path>...::
+	Show only commits that affect any of the specified paths.
+
+
+include::rev-list-options.txt[]
+
+include::pretty-formats.txt[]
+
+include::diff-generate-patch.txt[]
+
+Examples
+--------
+git log --no-merges::
+
+	Show the whole commit history, but skip any merges
+
+git log v2.6.12.. include/scsi drivers/scsi::
+
+	Show all commits since version 'v2.6.12' that changed any file
+	in the include/scsi or drivers/scsi subdirectories
+
+git log --since="2 weeks ago" \-- gitk::
+
+	Show the changes during the last two weeks to the file 'gitk'.
+	The "--" is necessary to avoid confusion with the *branch* named
+	'gitk'
+
+git log --name-status release..test::
+
+	Show the commits that are in the "test" branch but not yet
+	in the "release" branch, along with the list of paths
+	each commit modifies.
+
+git log --follow builtin-rev-list.c::
+
+	Shows the commits that changed builtin-rev-list.c, including
+	those commits that occurred before the file was given its
+	present name.
