man Git::Repository::Plugin::Log (3): Add a log() method to Git::Repository

SYNOPSIS

# load the plugin
use Git::Repository 'Log';
my $r = Git::Repository->new();
# get all log objects
my @logs = $r->log(qw( --since=yesterday ));
# get an iterator
my $iter = $r->log(qw( --since=yesterday ));
while ( my $log = $iter->next() ) {
...;
}

DESCRIPTION

This module adds a new method to Git::Repository.

METHOD

log

   # iterator
   my $iter = $r->log( @args );
   # all Git::Repository::Log objects obtained from the log
   my @logs = $r->log( @args );

Run "git log" with the given arguments.

In scalar context, returns a Git::Repository::Log::Iterator object, which can return Git::Repository::Log objects on demand.

In list context, returns the full list Git::Repository::Log objects. Note that this can be very memory-intensive.

See Git::Repository::Log::Iterator's documentation for details about how parameters are handled.

ACKNOWLEDGEMENTS

Many thanks to Aristotle Pagaltzis who requested a "log()" method in the first place, and for very interesting conversations on the topic.
