I am looking for a simple Git command that provides a nicely formatted list of all files that were part of the commit given by a hash (SHA-1), with no extraneous information.
I have tried:
git show a303aa90779efdd2f6b9d90693e2cbbbe4613c1d
Although it lists the files, it also includes unwanted diff information for each.
Is there another git command that will provide just the list I want, so that I can avoid parsing it from the git show output?
Preferred Way (because it's a plumbing command; meant to be programmatic):
$ git diff-tree --no-commit-id --name-only -r bd61ad98
index.html
javascript/application.js
javascript/ie6.js
Another Way (less preferred for scripts, because it's a porcelain command; meant to be user-facing)
$ git show --pretty="" --name-only bd61ad98
index.html
javascript/application.js
javascript/ie6.js
--no-commit-id suppresses the commit ID output.--pretty argument specifies an empty format string to avoid the cruft at the beginning.--name-only argument shows only the file names that were affected (Thanks Hank). Use --name-status instead, if you want to see what happened to each file (Deleted, Modified, Added)-r argument is to recurse into sub-treesIf you want to get the list of changed files:
git diff-tree --no-commit-id --name-only -r <commit-ish>
If you want to get the list of all files in a commit, you can use
git ls-tree --name-only -r <commit-ish>
I'll just assume that gitk is not desired for this. In that case, try git show --name-only <sha>.
I personally use the combination of --stat and --oneline with the show command:
git show --stat --oneline HEAD
git show --stat --oneline b24f5fb
git show --stat --oneline HEAD^^..HEAD
If you do not like/want the addition/removal stats, you can replace --stat with --name-only
git show --name-only --oneline HEAD
git show --name-only --oneline b24f5fb
git show --name-only --oneline HEAD^^..HEAD
You can also do
git log --name-only
and you can browse through various commits, commit messages and the changed files.

Recently I needed to list all changed files between two commits. So I used this (also *nix specific) command
git show --pretty="format:" --name-only START_COMMIT..END_COMMIT | sort | uniq
Or as Ethan points out:
git diff --name-only START_COMMIT..END_COMMIT
Using --name-status will also include the change (added, modified, deleted, etc.) next to each file:
git diff --name-status START_COMMIT..END_COMMIT
Simplest form:
git show --stat (hash)
That's easier to remember and it will give you all the information you need.
If you really want only the names of the files you could add the --name-only option.
git show --stat --name-only (hash)
I use the changed alias quite often. To set it up:
git config --global alias.changed 'show --pretty="format:" --name-only'
Then:
git changed (lists files modified in last commit)
git changed bAda55 (lists files modified in this commit)
git changed bAda55..ff0021 (lists files modified between those commits)
Similar commands that may be useful:
git log --name-status --oneline (very similar, but shows what actually happened M/C/D)
git show --name-only
Use
git log --name-status
This will show you the commit id, message, the files changed and whether it was modified, created, added, or deleted. Somewhat of an all-in-one command.
Using the standard git diff command (also good for scripting):
git diff --name-only <sha>^ <sha>
If you also want the status of the changed files:
git diff --name-status <sha>^ <sha>
This works well with merge commits.
Try this command for name and changes number of lines
git show --stat <commit-hash>
Only show file names
git show --stat --name-only <commit-hash>
For getting the last commit hash, try this command:
git log -1
Last commit with show files name and file status modify, create, or delete:
git log -1 --oneline --name-status <commit-hash>
Or for all
git log
For more advanced git log information, read these articles:
$ git log 88ee8^..88ee8 --name-only --pretty="format:"
OK, there are a couple of ways to show all files in a particular commit...
To reduce the information and show only names of the files which committed, you simply can add --name-only or --name-status flag... These flags just show you the file names which are different from previous commits as you want...
So you can do git diff followed by --name-only, with two commit hashes after <sha0> <sha1>. Something like below:
git diff --name-only 5f12f15 kag9f02
I also created the below image to show all steps to go through in these situations:
There's also git whatchanged, which is more low level than git log
NAME
git-whatchanged - Show logs with difference each commit introduces
It outputs the commit summary with a list of files beneath it with their modes and if they were added(A), deleted(D), or modified(M);
$ git whatchanged f31a441398fb7834fde24c5b0c2974182a431363
Would give something like:
commit f31a441398fb7834fde24c5b0c2974182a431363

I know this answer doesn't really match "with no extraneous information.", but I still think this list is more useful than just the filenames.
I use this to get the list of modified files between two changesets:
git diff --name-status <SHA1> <SHA2> | cut -f2
I like to use
git show --stat <SHA1>^..<SHA2>
Use a simple one-line command, if you just want the list of files changed in the last commit:
git diff HEAD~1 --name-only
I like this:
git diff --name-status <SHA1> <SHA1>^
I found a perfect answer to this:
git show --name-status --oneline <commit-hash>
So that I can know
which files were just modified (M)
Which files were newly added (A)
Which files were deleted (D)
Display the log.
COMMIT can be blank (""), the SHA-1 hash, or a shortened version of the SHA-1 hash.
git log COMMIT -1 --name-only
This will list just the files and is very useful for further processing.
git log COMMIT -1 --name-only --pretty=format:"" | grep "[^\s]"
List the files that changed in a commit:
git diff --name-only SHA1^ SHA1
This doesn't show log messages, extra newlines, or any other clutter. This works for any commit, not just the current one.
Only the file list (not even commit message):
git show --name-only --pretty=format:
E.g. open all changed files in your editor:
git show --name-only --pretty=format: | xargs "$EDITOR"
A combination of "git show --stat" (thanks Ryan) and a couple of sed commands should trim the data down for you:
git show --stat <SHA1> | sed -n "/ [\w]\*|/p" | sed "s/|.\*$//"
That will produce just the list of modified files.
There is a simple trick to view as a file listing. Just add : after the hash:
git show 9d3a52c474:
You can then drill in,
git show 9d3a52c474:someDir/someOtherDir
If you hit a file, you'll get the raw version of the file; which sometimes is what you want if you're only looking for a nice reference or key pieces of code (diffs can make everything a mess),
git show 9d3a52c474:someDir/someOtherDir/somefile
The only drawback of this method is that it doesn't easily show a tree of files.
List all files in a commit tree:
git ls-tree --name-only --full-tree a21e610
I use this to get the list of changed files in a merge commit
λ git log -m -1 --name-only --pretty="format:"
configs/anotherconfig.xml
configs/configsInRepo.xml
or
λ git log -m -1 --name-status --pretty="format:"
A configs/anotherconfig.xml
M configs/configsInRepo.xml
git show HEAD@{0}
works fine for me
To list the files changed on a particular commit:
git show --pretty=%gd --stat <commit_id>
To list the files changed on recent commit:
git show --pretty=%gd --stat
