I want to grep within the range of changes in Rubymine.

Check it out on the terminal

You can use git log-G<regex> --author=<pattern> in Git 1.7.4 and later.

For this purpose, the following options would be useful:

• Specify a search scope
  • --all
  • --branches[=<pattern>]
  • --tags[=<pattern>]
• View commit diff
  • -c—Displays diff.
  • --cc—Shows a short diff.

• --all
• --branches[=<pattern>]
• --tags[=<pattern>]

• -c—Displays diff.
• --cc—Shows a short diff.

If you use RubyMine, you can start Terminal on RubyMine and type this command.The Terminal can be found in the search window that starts with Shift-Shift or from the menu "View"→"Tool Windows"→"Terminal".

If you use it many times, setting the alias is useful.

Other Git Commands

• git log-S<string>—Similar to the -GYou can also add --pickaxe-regex to make it a regular expression.
• git grep<regexp>$(git rev-list --all --author=<pattern>)—This is how to do the same with another command.If you use it, it will be printed line by line. (See Post to Stack Overflow by Jeet for more information.)
