Both commands use the same machinery, just with different\ndefaults.\n\nYou can replace it with `git log`:\n\n• Given: `git whatchanged <opts>`\n• Replace with: `git log <opts> --no-merges --raw`\n\nAdditionally for the sake of readability, you might have more\nuse for `--stat` or `--name-only` rather than `--raw` if you are only\nreading the output (not feeding the output to another program).\n"}]}
