Get the modified files

I want to have a list of modified files using a searching pattern

so far, I have done that

git log --pretty=oneline | grep SEARCH_TEXT | cut -d' ' -f1

to get all the concern commit. I could now use xargs and git log --pretty=oneline --name-only to have all the files and then sort | uniq at the end to make it clean, but I am not git and bash expert and I don't know how to do this.

with git log --pretty=oneline , you get ID-s of the commit's then you can check with the next command:

git show --name-only {sha-id}

also with: git diff-tree --no-commit-id --name-only -r <sha-id> with this you get the files modified and included in that particular commit, depends of the output and sorting

git diff-tree --no-commit-id --name-only -r <sha-id> |sort -r -n -k5

this will sort starting with largest files. The -n operator specifies "numeric" sorting as compared to alphabetic.

To continue with your bash scripting approach, you could do:

for i in `git log --pretty=oneline |  grep SEARCH_PATTERN | cut -d ' '
-f1 `; do git show --pretty="format:" --name-only $i; done | sort | uniq

Or using xargs: 

git log --pretty=oneline |  grep SEARCH_PATTERN | cut -d ' ' -f1 | xargs git
show --pretty="format:" --name-only | sort | uniq

thanks for your help, I achieved what I wanted with this

git log --pretty=oneline | grep SEARCH_PATTERN | cut -d' ' -f1 | xargs git show --name-only --pretty=format: | sort | uniq

If you want to list all modified files since the first commit you can use

git diff --name-only $(git rev-list --max-parents=0 HEAD)

and then you can sort or grep it as you want

If I understood well you want to create a list in the format [commit_id] [file(s)_changed]. It that's right try the following:

[root@TIAGO-TEST git]# git log --pretty=oneline| awk '{print $1}'|while read commit; do path=$(git show --name-only $commit | egrep -v '^(commit|Author|Date:|Merge:|^\s|$)'); echo $commit $path; done

Once you have that list you can grep for whatever pattern you want.
