Look up commit log for commit ID in Git

Git

Git Problem Overview

I want to look at a commit by ID. For instance, I want to know the code that got committed for that ID, something like:

git log <commit_id>

And this would display the committed code and commit message that corresponds to this ID.

Git Solutions

Solution 1 - Git

git show <commit_id>

is the droid you are looking for, probably.

Solution 2 - Git

@SethRobertson's solution works for me but it shows a diff. I wanted to see it exactly like git log shows it. So add --no-patch:

git show <commit_id> --no-patch
