Thank you, I found that 'git log -p --abbrev-commit --pretty=medium' gives the identical output as the the 'git whatchanged -p --abbrev- commit --pretty=medium' command that my alias, 'gwch' was set to use in oh-my-zsh. I'll just set my alias to that now instead. On Fri, 2025-09-26 at 09:13 +0200, Kristoffer Haugsbakk wrote:

for`--stat` or `--name-only` rather than `--raw` if you are only reading the output.
