View list of GitHub commits within the specified date range

Hello Folks πŸ‘‹

What's up friends, this is SnowBit here. I am a young passionate and self-taught frontend web developer and have an intention to become a successful developer.

Have you ever needed to get the previous commits of your project within a specific amount of time?

Today, I will show you a very important git command that prints a list of GitHub commits within the specified date range.


Let's dive into the terminal

Let's print all commits in the specified date range.

  • Using the following command to log all the commits between <date-from> and <date-to>. ```bash

git log [--since=] [--until=]


**Let's run the command  ✌️**
- Go to your project library (make sure the repository is git initialized).
- Open terminal 😎
- Run the following command:
```bash


git log --since='Feb 10 2022' --until='Feb 28  2022'


Enter fullscreen mode Exit fullscreen mode

Here's the output of this command
commits command output
Isn't this a cool command?

  • You can even use the following command ```bash

git log --since='3 weeks ago'


- To exit, press `Q`
