This command is being removed because git-log(1) supplanted it over 12 years ago. Both commands use the same machinery, just with different defaults.
You can replace it with `git log`:
• Given: `git whatchanged <opts>` • Replace with: `git log <opts> --no-merges --raw`
Additionally for the sake of readability, you might have more use for `--stat` or `--name-only` rather than `--raw` if you are only reading the output (not feeding the output to another program).
