Another similar tool is "git log -S". $ git log -Srestore_cmap1 --oneline examples/python/xw08.py d7db05b Revert to using fixed examples and instead have a "include" file which adds the correct import statements for Numeric / numpy. This also allows the file to define functions missing from Numeric, e.g. isnan. 32686ad Port python bindings to use numpy instead of Numeric. Currently numpy support is disabled. To enable it use -DHAVE_NUMPY=ON on the cmake command line. 8bb973d Add routine to restore cmap1 to default (so that subsequent examples that use cmap1 such as xw16 still continue to have default cmap1). There's also "git log -G" which takes a regular expression. See "git help log" for more details. For a single file, "git blame" is generally preferable (though it can be slower), but for multiple files/directories "git log -S" is great. > I was concerned that might create a different PostScript file > result for Python, but since restore_cmap1 call has been there since > 2002 with no issues like that, I have to look elsewhere for the source > of the recently introduced one-line diff I am getting between the > plsurf3dl Python and C results for example 8. There's always "git bisect"... :-) Dave ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ _______________________________________________ Plplot-devel mailing list Plplot-devel@lists.sourceforge.net https://lists.sourceforge.net/lists/listinfo/plplot-devel
