List out all the files that I have pushed to the remote Git repo

Question

How do I list out all the files that I have pushed in my last push to a remote Git repository?

I have a project and have modified only few files and add, commit and push it to the remote. Now how do I see the list of files I have pushed to remote?

Should it have something to do with last commit ID?

Answer 1

You can use your remote-tracking branches and their reflog to see what changes you have pushed. For example, if you pushed code to origin/master, you can list all the files that you changed with the following:

git diff origin/master@{1} origin/master --name-status

The syntax basically says to take the difference between origin/master@{1}, i.e. origin/master at its 1st previous position, and the current state of origin/master, as last known by your local repo.
