Updated: Useful filtering options of git log

Changes

Git `log` offers useful options for filtering. This card provides a short overview. 
## By message
Only commits that include a specific string in their commit message
`git log --grep="tracker id"`
## By file
Only commits that introduced changes to a specific file
`git log -- foo.rb bar.rb`
+> [Note]
+> In case the file was renamed or moved the `--follow` option can be helpful
+
+`git log --follow -- foo.rb`
+
## By content
If you want to know when a specific line of code was added in the project
`git log -S"def function_name"`
## By range
If you want to know which commits have been added between two commits. 
`git log base_branch..compare_branch` will show you how many commits were added to `compare_branch` since `base_branch`. 
## By count
`git log -n` to show only the last `n` commits. 
## By date
+ You can also use `git log --since 2023-02-17` to show only commits from that date until today. 
+ If you want all the dates until a specific date, you can use `git log --until 2021-01-19` 
> [Note]
> The `--since` and `--until` flags are synonymous with `--after` and `--before`, respectively.
+ You can combine both too: `git log --after="2014-7-1" --before="2014-7-4"`
You can use references like "2 years 1 day 3 minutes ago" and "yesterday": `git log --after="yesterday"`
