It's surprisingly simple:

git log dev..master

Just to elaborate and put an end to the confusion having resulted in 16 comments:

There is a huge difference between using two dots .. or three dots ... between the branch ids:

  • With two .. you get all new commits only on master since they have diverged.
  • With three ... you get all commits on both dev and master since they have diverged.

By "get all commits" do you want to simply view the commits, or incorporate them into your dev branch?

If you want to add them into your branch, you'll probably want to git pull or git fetch depending on your endgame. This thread covers the difference pretty well: What is the difference between 'git pull' and 'git fetch'?
