Commit log

Repository.walk(oid:Oid|None, sort_mode:enums.SortMode=enums.SortMode.NONE) → Walker

Start traversing the history from the given commit. The following SortMode values can be used to control the walk:

• NONE. Sort the output with the same default method from git: reverse chronological order. This is the default sorting for new walkers.

• TOPOLOGICAL. Sort the repository contents in topological order (no parents before all of its children are shown); this sorting mode can be combined with time sorting to produce git’s –date-order`.

• TIME. Sort the repository contents by commit time; this sorting mode can be combined with topological sorting.

• REVERSE. Iterate through the repository contents in reverse order; this sorting mode can be combined with any of the above.

Example:

>>> frompygit2import Repository
>>> frompygit2.enumsimport SortMode
>>> repo = Repository('.git')
>>> for commit in repo.walk(repo.head.target, SortMode.TOPOLOGICAL):
...  print(commit.message)
>>> for commit in repo.walk(repo.head.target, SortMode.TOPOLOGICAL | SortMode.REVERSE):
...  print(commit.message)
>>>

Walker.hide(oid:Oid)

Mark a commit (and its ancestors) uninteresting for the output.

Walker.push(oid:Oid)

Mark a commit to start traversal from.

Walker.reset()

Reset the walking machinery for reuse.

Walker.sort(mode:enums.SortMode)

Change the sorting mode (this resets the walker).

Walker.simplify_first_parent()

Simplify the history by first-parent.
