qtcreator: Start Qt Creator and show the diff from a specific commit.
$ qtcreator -git-show ${commit}
try on your machine

The command qtcreator -git-show ${commit} is used to view the details of a specific git commit in Qt Creator.

Here's a breakdown of the command components:

  • qtcreator: It is the main command-line executable for Qt Creator, an Integrated Development Environment (IDE) for developing applications using the Qt framework.
  • -git-show: This is an argument or option that specifies a specific git commit to show its details. When used with qtcreator, it opens a dialog or window to display the details of the specified git commit.
  • ${commit}: It is a placeholder that represents the actual commit hash or identifier of the desired git commit. This needs to be replaced with the actual commit hash when executing the command.

To use the command, you need to open a terminal or command prompt, navigate to the directory where the project (with git repository) is located, and execute the command by replacing ${commit} with the desired commit hash. The command will then launch Qt Creator and display the details of that git commit.

This explanation was created by an AI. In most cases those are correct. But please always be careful and never run a command you are not sure if it is safe.
