List of all commits (for all branches) for this file

Question

This question is closely related to the List of all commits for a specific file , however it is different. I want to know what commits, in all branches , changed this file.

To make it more complex, this file may or may not be in the working tree.

Answer 1

You can use gitk

gitk --all <path to file> (you need to install gitk)

eg.

gitk --all -- /home/kit.ho/project/abc.txt

Answer 2

Try the following:

 git log --all -- path 

Answer 3

Command line

I would highly recommend adding a graph parameter using git log:

 git log --graph --all -- <filename> 

Gui

Gitk is a fairly old tool and is not always installed, I recommend using another free tool, for example, SourceTree:
