Git Logs and History

Beginner ✓ → Intermediate ✓ → Advanced ✓ → Professional

Professional · 4 — Real projects · ~10 min · Module 10: Git and GitHub

What is this?

git log shows commit history — author, date, message. git blame shows who last changed each line.

Why should you care?

Production incident response starts with “which commit introduced this bug?”

See it live — copy this example

Create a Web API project (dotnet new webapi), paste the code, then run dotnet run.

git log --oneline --graph --all -20
git blame src/Order.Api/Program.cs
git show abc1234

Run Example »

This lesson uses terminal or setup steps. Run commands on your computer — the live editor appears on coding lessons.

What happened?

  • git bisect binary-searches history to find breaking commit.
  • Tags mark releases (v1.0.0).

Try it yourself

  1. Run git log --oneline -10 on your repo.
  2. Use git blame on one file.
  3. Tag current main as v0.1.0: git tag v0.1.0
  4. Change a string or route in the example and save — watch Swagger or the RabbitMQ Management UI update.
  5. Break the code on purpose (remove a semicolon), read the error message, then fix it.

Remember

log = audit trail. blame = line ownership. tag releases for deploy rollback.
