You may be beyond my knowledge here, but if you want to list the changes that were made to the file-tree by each of a series of commits, you will pretty much have to do one invocation of diff-tree for each commit, or something else that is functionally equivalent. The reason is that there is no stored summary of "what is changed by this commit", the only way to determine that information is to compare each file reference of each commit with the cognate file reference in its predecessor commit. There's no way to do that whose run time is not proportional to both the number of commits and the number of files.
