I was directed by my git client (v2.51.0 installed via homebrew) to send this email if I still use `git whatchanged`. I think it is a great verb and I can never remember the different log output options to get me what I want with `git log`.

Git 2.51.1 lets you set up an alias with the same name.

There is one regression with that release that will be fixed in 2.51.2.
