I've seen you pointing this kind of examples many times, but is that really different from what even SVN does? "svn log drivers/char" will also list atomic commits, and give me a filtered view of the global log.

So, yes, that's cool, but I don't see a real difference between git and almost anything else (except CVS which really got this wrong, no big surprise).
