git diff between the latest commit and the last one I did

Question

so, I can easily get the diff between two commits by using

git diff hash_old hash_new file

that works, but in my current workflow my diffs are invariably between the latest commit and my commit. is there a way to automate that with a shell alias so that i don't have to manually copy the two hashes but instead always pick the latest with my name or email and compare it against the latest in line?

I tried to do this by subsetting the output of git diff through a shell function and then creating an alias, but not sure the output is stored as an array. any suggestions?

Answer 1

这可能是最短的解决方案，也是最稳定的解决方案，因为它使用低级helper命令进行历史记录遍历）：

git diff $(git rev-list --author="Your Name" -1 HEAD) HEAD

Answer 2

Try this:

$ git log -1 --pretty=format:"%h" --author=<name> | xargs git diff

Replace <name> with your git user-name .
