Question

Is there a way to show index numbers of commit in

    git log

command, git log only show me SHA1 check sum. Thanks

No correct solution

OTHER TIPS

Git commits do not have an index number. A git repository is a tree of commits, it is not a list.

git log can order commits in the following ways:

Commit Ordering
   By default, the commits are shown in reverse chronological order.

   --topo-order
       This option makes them appear in topological order (i.e. descendant commits are shown before their parents).

   --date-order
       This option is similar to --topo-order in the sense that no parent comes before all of its children, but otherwise things are still ordered in the commit timestamp order.

   --reverse
       Output the commits in reverse order. Cannot be combined with --walk-reflogs.

If git log would show you an index number it would change each time you show the commits in a different order (and if you merged in another branch).
