tig: Show the difference between two references (such as branches or tags).
$ tig ${base_ref}..${compared_ref}
try on your machine
The command you provided is using the "tig" tool with two arguments: "${base_ref}" and "${compared_ref}".
"tig" is a text-based interface for Git, a version control system. It helps visualize and browse Git repositories commit history.
"${base_ref}..${compared_ref}" is specifying a range of commits to display in "tig". It represents the difference between two commit references, "${base_ref}" and "${compared_ref}". These references can be branch names, commit hashes, or tags.
When running the command, "tig" will display the commits and changes between the two references specified in "${base_ref}" and "${compared_ref}". This allows users to easily understand the differences between different points in the repository's history.
