Commit log

• Repository.walk(oid[, sort_mode]) → iterator

• Generator that traverses the history starting from the given commit.The following types of sorting could be used to control traversingdirection:

  • GIT_SORT_NONE. This is the default sorting for new walkers.Sort the repository contents in no particular ordering
  • GIT_SORT_TOPOLOGICAL. Sort the repository contents in topological order(parents before children); this sorting mode can be combined withtime sorting.
  • GIT_SORT_TIME. Sort the repository contents by commit time
  • GIT_SORT_REVERSE. Iterate through the repository contents in reverseorder; this sorting mode can be combined with any of the above.
    Example:

>>> from pygit2 import Repository
>>> from pygit2 import GIT_SORT_TOPOLOGICAL, GIT_SORT_REVERSE
>>> repo = Repository('.git')
>>> for commit in repo.walk(repo.head.target, GIT_SORT_TOPOLOGICAL):
...    print(commit.message)
>>> for commit in repo.walk(repo.head.target, GIT_SORT_TOPOLOGICAL | GIT_SORT_REVERSE):
...    print(commit.message)
>>>

• Walker.hide(oid)

• Mark a commit (and its ancestors) uninteresting for the output.

• Walker.push(oid)

• Mark a commit to start traversal from.

• Walker.reset()

• Reset the walking machinery for reuse.

• Walker.sort(mode)

• Change the sorting mode (this resets the walker).

• Walker.simplify_first_parent()

• Simplify the history by first-parent.
