You can also point it at a directory and get changes for the entire directory. I also suggest trying "git whatchanged" as an alternative to "git log." I'm guessing you could get git log to display the same info but I find whatchanged to be more useful, at least for directories. There wouldn't be much point in running it on a single file since the main benefit is showing what files changed in each commit. Keep in mind that git knows nothing about gentoo package atoms/syntax. It just sees a directory tree and files... -- Rich
