Subject: git-log --first-parent: show only the first parent log
X-Git-Tag: v1.5.1-rc2~3^2
X-Git-Url: https://git.tokkee.org/?a=commitdiff_plain;h=0053e902b4f777ba454b62263d3695e5292b1559;p=git.git

git-log --first-parent: show only the first parent log

If your development history does not have fast-forward merges,
i.e. the "first parent" of commits in your history are special
than other parents, this option gives a better overview of the
evolution of a particular branch.
