Hi,

We are using github (but that's more or less irrelevant, since I'm
just running git 1.6 locally on Ubuntu). Some time ago, I created a
new branch (release.2.2) and pushed it out to the remote repository.
All the digging through log, gitk, etc. has not made it possible for
me to figure out the commit (or point in time) at which I cut the
branch.

What I want to do is to get a list of files (and/or diffs for those
files) from that point in time to HEAD on the branch. I understand
that git-diff --name-only is part of the solution. What I can't figure
out is how to pinpoint the first commit. So that's my first
question... how do I do that?

To complicate things, I was also working on a side branch which I
merged to master before cutting the release.2.2 branch. In the best of
all worlds, I would trace my changes back to the point at which I cut
*that* branch and follow through the HEAD of release.2.2. How do I do
that? I know I might have to take 2 passes, one for release 2.2 and
one for the side branch and that's OK.

Thanks!

Jon
