Git log for a set of commits

I am trying to get git log --name-only for a set of commits I have. I can use a bash script to loop through the commits, but I wanted to know if there is a better way.

For example: If have thousands of commits in a database, how can I get the git log information for just 3 commits which are randomly picked?

Any insights appreciated.

Thanks

Ok, IIUC you want git show --name-only:

git show --name-only <COMMIT_SHA1> <ANOTHER_COMMIT_SHA1>

For example, in git://w1.fi/hostap.git repository:

$  git show --name-only 1778f1e9a4c37aa2bad51f4027139625cf39783a 0fa669bcaeb8861cbf24544f18d22a8f39821f1a

    SAE: Fix PTK derivation to use KDF-SHA256

    The previous implementation ended up defaulting to using PRF-SHA1 for
    deriving PTK from PMK when SAE was used. This is not correct since the
    SAE AKM is defined to be using SHA-256 -based KDF instead. Fix that.

    Note: This change is not backwards compatible. Both the AP and station
    side implementations will need to be updated at the same time to
    maintain functionality.

    Fix a resource leak on hostapd maclist parsing error path

    The open file needs to be closed in error case. The conversion to using
    a new helper function (hostapd_add_acl_maclist) somehow managed to
    remove the neede fclose(f) call. Bring it back to fix this.
