git-rev-list: List all commits on the current branch.
$ git rev-list ${HEAD}
try on your machine

The command git rev-list ${HEAD} is used to display a list of all the commit hashes in the current Git repository, starting from the most recent commit and going backward in history.

Here's a breakdown of the command:

  • git rev-list is the Git command that is used to list commit hashes.
  • ${HEAD} is a placeholder that refers to the current commit your branch is pointing to. It represents the most recent commit from which the listing should start.

In simpler terms, executing git rev-list ${HEAD} will show you a list of commit hashes starting from the most recent commit in your Git repository and going back in time. The list will be displayed in the terminal output.
