Git: Who has modified this line?

April 4, 2023 by Tarik

To see commits affecting line 40 of file foo:

git blame -L 40,+1 foo

The +1 means exactly one line. To see changes for lines 40-60, it’s:

git blame -L 40,+21 foo

git blame -L 40,60 foo

The second number can be an offset designated with a ‘+’, or a line number. git blame docs
