如何使 git 日志 output 不打印到屏幕上

Question

When I use 'git log', and then type 'q', I still see the logs on my screen as like it was printed to the screen.

I want to do it like in vim, when I open a file in vim and then close it I don't see file content, I see only the vim command. How to let git log not showing the log after exiting? (like in less command)

Answer 1

Use less utility, it would look like:

$ git log | less
