Grep and show only a list of matching commits

[kaihendry]

How do I view all the commits relating to a particular string (like a bug ID or topic)?

For example in tig: git rev-list --grep=unicode HEAD | tig show --stdin

I know there is search, but I don't want the other commits to distract.

Does lazygit have some stdin mode?

I don't think it's currently possible to filter based on commit message or author, only by filename (press ctrl-s in the Commits panel).

Alternatively, you could run just that as a custom command, press : and it will bring a pop-up where you can then type git rev-list --grep=unicode HEAD | tig show --stdin if you so desire.

I think it wouldn't be too hard to implement a stdin mode, so this is worth promoting to an issue
